Now the fix has been applied in Debian and in upstream v3.2, and the bug is indeed closed, but I would like to see this fixed in the upstream stable/longterm kernels. (Especially the 3.0.y longterm tree, since that will help share the maintenance burden from 3.2.y when tracking down cciss bugs.) Could you test the following patch[*] against Linux 3.0.16 from kernel.org? Instructions for doing so are at [1]. If it works, I'll propose the patch to Greg for the 3.0.y longterm and 3.1.y stable branches, so others using the kernel can benefit from the fix, too.

Cameron" <[email protected]> Date: Mon, 28 Nov 2011 20:12:05 +0100 Subject: cciss: Add IRQF_SHARED back in for the non-MSI(X) interrupt handler commit 6225da481597ebff09454c785fe0afc7f5fdbb77 upstream. IRQF_SHARED is required for older controllers that don't support MSI(X) and which may end up sharing an interrupt. [jn: The upstream commit also removes the deprecated IRQF_DISABLED flag in the MSI(X) case, which is a noop so for stable we skip it.] Signed-off-by: Stephen M.
