The imu (inter-processor messaging unit) on the iop13xx enables mailbox style communication between the two cores on iop13xx. Greg Tucker has has wrapped this capability in a scsi driver which allows Linux to interface with the other core as if it were a scsi disk target. I would like to submit

It seems another driver(qla4xxx) is also using shared queue tag. It is natural to imagine there might be same symptom in that driver. But I don't know the driver and have no hardware so I can not say anything certain about it. qla4xxx implements slightly differently, in the sense we don't
