            Bug ID: 197877
           Summary: arcmsr fails to initialize Areca ARC-1110/ARC-1120 on
                    some systems
           Product: SCSI Drivers
           Version: 2.5
    Kernel Version: 3.18+
          Hardware: Intel
                OS: Linux
              Tree: Mainline
            Status: NEW
          Severity: high
          Priority: P1
         Component: Other
          Assignee: scsi_drivers-ot...@kernel-bugs.osdl.org
          Reporter: k...@sognnes.no
        Regression: No

Since the Areca driver was upgraded to v1.30.00.04 in kernel 3.18, ARC-1110 and
ARC-1120 controllers is no longer properly initialized on some systems. All
kernels from 3.18 onwards are affected.

Loading the module generates the following messages in the log:

---------------------

---------------------

No logical or passthrough drives are detected regardless of controller
configuration. 

The problem only affects certain hardware. The above was taken from a ProLiant
ML370 G3 (Intel x86). The issue was reproduced on x86_64 using an AMD-based
Fujitsu PC. Both systems work as expected with kernel 3.17.8, and the exact
same controllers works fine under any kernel when used in other systems, like
for instance a ProLiant ML350 G5 (x86 or x86_64).
