Re: 7.2-RELEASE-p5 and kernel panic with mpt driver

[Colin Waring]

It's a little difficult to tell from the lack of info you've provided, 
but I'd assume you're running a release to which the patch has not 
been applied.  To do this, you'd need to upgrade to 7-STABLE, 
8-RELEASE, or 8-STABLE.  CURRENT would work too, but that's not really 
a candidate for production servers and you should think hard about 
putting STABLE on one.  That being said, STABLE is generally quite 
stable and I don't have a problem with one in production provided they 
are reasonably tested before deployment.

My supfile uses the tag
*default release=cvs tag=RELENG_7_2

The docs on stable say to use RELENG_7 for which I assumed was out of 
date with the docs not always being updated frequently. Is there a 
different tag for 7.2 Stable or am I not understanding the different 
versions?


Thanks,
Colin.

Your understanding is incorrect.  RELENG_7 is stable, RELENG_7_0, RELENG_7_1
and RELENG_7_2 are snapshots of RELENG_7.  RELENG_X will always be more
current than RELENG_X_Y.  Trust the docs unless you explicitly know
differently.
