We finally got the chance to test it end of last week. I forgot to
update everyone Monday. B all appearances, the patch fixes the problem.
We did not see any new issues with the patch (vs. same test scenarios
without).
I'll also update the bugzilla.
Thanks,
Doug

Quite often drivers set only "write" permission assuming that this
includes "read" permission as well and this works on plenty
platforms.
However IODA2 is strict about this and produces an EEH when "read"
permission is not and reading happens.
This adds a workaround in IODA code to always add the "read" bit
when
the "write" bit is set.

Ben, what was the driver which did not set "read" and caused EEH?
aacraid
Cheers,
Ben.
Just to be precise, the driver wasn't responsible for setting READ.
The
driver called scsi_dma_map() and the scsicmd was set (by scsi
layer) as
DMA_FROM_DEVICE so the current code would set the permissions to
WRITE-ONLY. Previously, and in other architectures, this scsicmd
would have
resulted in READ+WRITE permissions on the DMA map.
Does the patch fix the issue? Thanks.

I am still working on getting a machine to try this on. From code
inspection, it looks like it should work. The problem is shortage of
machines and machines tied-up by Test.
Any progress here? Thanks.
