It sounds like there are real problems here that would be fixed by changing the mutex strategy and limiting VPD read lengths, but that we don't quite have consensus on how to solve them yet. VPD is a bit of a tar pit. We've talked about limiting VPD read length before (see links below), which requires interpreting the VPD contents (just the tags & sizes) the kernel. I think I'm OK with doing that, provided we should audit existing users and make sure we don't break them. http://lkml.kernel.org/r/c67cd7f4-8d8f-48fc-a63c-dbdafde87...@cmexhtcas1.ad.emulex.com http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1f6d7b6c-7189-4fe3-926b-42609724c...@cmexhtcas2.ad.emulex.com I'd also like to include specifics, e.g., bugzillas with complete dmesg and lspci information, for the problems we're fixing.
