[PATCH] 2.6 aacraid: Fix for controller load based timeouts

Martin Drab found that he could get aacraid timeouts with high load on his controller / disk drive combinations. After some experimentation Mark Salyzyn has come up with a patch to reduce the default max_sectors to something that will keep the controller from being overloaded and will eliminate th

Yes containers will go offline, but this fix is for a recent change to the driver; if it was 6 months ago, it was a totally different problem. You probably can resolve your problems by making sure you have the latest Firmware. I don't believe there are any changes in the driver in the past 6 months

[PATCH] qla2xxx: Cleanup FC remote port registration.

Cleanup FC remote port registration. Due to the inherent behaviour (an immediate scan) of adding a 'target'-role-capable rport via fc_remote_port_add(), split the registration into two steps -- addition as unknown-type role, then use fc_remote_port_rolchg() with appropriate role (based on PLOGI/PR

Consolidate ISP24xx chip reset logic. Consolidate near-duplicate RISC reset logic from qla24xx_reset_chip() and qla24xx_chip_diag(). Also, after initiating a soft-reset, insure the firmware has completed all NVRAM accesses before continuing. Signed-off-by: Andrew Vasquez <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ---
