No, it's not related. One of the disks in the RAIDZ2 pool went bad:

(da4:arcmsr0:0:4:0): SCSI status: Check Condition
(da4:arcmsr0:0:4:0): SCSI sense: MEDIUM ERROR asc:11,0 (Unrecovered read

and it seems it froze the whole zpool. Removing the disk by hand solved
the problem.
I've seen this previously on other machines with ciss.
I wonder why ZFS didn't throw it out of the pool.
Such hangs happen when I/O never returns. ZFS doesn't timeout I/O
requests on its own, this is driver's responsibility. It is still
strange that the driver didn't pass I/O error up to ZFS or it might as
well be ZFS bug, but I don't think so.
Indeed, it may to be a controller/driver bug. The newly released (last
december) firmware says something about a similar problem. I've
upgraded, we'll see whether it will help next time a drive goes awry.
I've only seen these errors in dmesg, not in zpool status, there
everything was clear (all zeroes).
BTW, I've swapped those bad drives (da4, which reported the above
errors, and da16, which didn't reported anything to the OS, it was just
plain bad according to the controller firmware -and after its deletion,
I could offline da4, so it seems it's the real cause, see my previous
e-mail), and zpool replaced first da4, but after some seconds of
thinking all IO on all disks deceased.
After waiting some minutes, it was still the same, so I've rebooted.
Then I noticed that a scrub is going on, so I stopped it.
Then the zpool replace da4 went fine, it started to resilver the disk.
But another zpool replace (for da16) causes the same error: some seconds
of IO, then nothing and it stuck in that.
Has anybody tried replacing two drives simultaneously with the zfs v28
patch? (this is a stripe of two raidz2s and da4 and da16 are in
different raidz2)
