For Linux | |
Copyright (c) 2006-2009 Broadcom Corporation | |
All rights reserved. | |
Version 2.0.1e-05 (Dec 16, 2009) | |
================================ | |
Fixes | |
===== | |
1. Problem: CQ 44851 iscsiboot image intermittently does not restart with | |
init 6 command | |
Cause: Driver called to libiscsi routine with improper pointer | |
dereference | |
Change: Fixed the pointer dereferencing | |
Impact: All chipsets | |
2. Problem: CQ 44842 Session get disconnected on broadcom offload with | |
lunreset | |
Cause: Driver not processing sense data if the SCSI response status | |
is not CHECK_CONDITION | |
Change: Modified so that sense data processing will occur for all | |
fail status | |
Impact: All chipsets | |
Version 2.0.1e-04 (Nov 04, 2009) | |
================================ | |
Fixes | |
===== | |
1. Problem: CQ 44224 Not able to login to the target using jumbo frames | |
Cause: Driver did not support max mtu to be > 1500 | |
Change: Added support for max mtu = 9000 | |
Impact: All chipsets | |
Version 2.0.1e-03 (Sep 18, 2009) | |
================================ | |
Fixes | |
===== | |
1. Problem: Failed to operate with 57711E | |
Cause: Driver did not identify the chipset correctly | |
Change: Fixed the identification procedure | |
Impact: 57711E | |
Version 2.0.1e-02 (Aug 24, 2009) | |
================================ | |
Fixes | |
===== | |
1. Problem: CQ 43247 - Failing iLab iSCSI test 6.1 | |
(Error from initiator to target) | |
Cause: Driver did not send iSCSI tmf request pkts correctly | |
Change: Fixed tmf request sending | |
Impact: All chipsets, SLES11U0 | |
Version 2.0.1e-01 (Aug 17, 2009) | |
================================ | |
Fixes | |
===== | |
1. Problem: Disk does not appear in filesystem after login to iscsi target | |
Cause: Driver did not return proper SCSI host number in create_session() | |
and this caused stack to scan an invalid host | |
Change: return correct shost->host_no in create_session() call | |
Impact: All chipsets, SLES11U0 | |
2. Problem: Unable to logon to target using 5771x chipsets | |
Cause: Bug in usage for 'sq_size' caused driver to use '0' send queue | |
size and eventual connection offload failure. | |
Change: Fixed SQ handling | |
Impact: 5771x chipsets, SLES11U0 | |
Enhancements | |
============ | |
Back ported a bunch of bug fixes/clean-up's from upstream driver, | |
1) convert hba->net_dev_lock and bnx2i_dev_lock to mutex | |
2) Fix for invalid cid (cid #0) freed under certain error conditions | |
3) Fix for CMDSN jump seen during cable pull tests | |
Version 2.0.1e (Apr 21, 2009) | |
