03:44:52 EST 2008 AMD on a Dell 2850  Poweredge with the defaut LSI/PERC
4 and AMR kernel devices and I'm not seeing any timeouts at all.  Maybe
someone knows if something significant in those device files changed
from 7.0 to 7.1?  I don't think the Linux drivers are a viable option.
But using 7.1 PRE seems to work just fine, here.

Looks like we're on different hardware. Mine is SAS and yours is SCSI

mpt0:  port 0xec00-0xecff mem 
0xdffec000-0xdffe,0xdfff-0xdfff irq 16 at device 0.0 on pci2

da0: Command Queueing Enabled
da0: 476837MB (976562176 512 byte sectors: 255H 63S/T 60788C)

I have however noticed that the events only occur at specific times. So far I 
have noticed them only at boot time just after dmesg identifies the adapter and 
also whenever I try to install/upgrade a port.

It doesn't matter what port it is but here is an example (seen as I'm having 
trouble with the mysql port not compiling but that's for a different thread)

# make
===>  Extracting for mysql-client-5.0.75
=> MD5 Checksum OK for mysql-5.0.75.tar.gz.
=> SHA256 Checksum OK for mysql-5.0.75.tar.gz.
###Long pause here of >30 seconds with the mpt0 errors being logged
===>  Patching for mysql-client-5.0.75

I have raised this with my provider and they have said "it is working 
fine without any problem you can simply ignore this message".


Now I'm no expert on the megaraid controller but I'm fairly certain 
that frequent timeouts are not something that I want to be seeing. I 
looked around and saw other people asking the same but no answers 
posted publicly. I was also wondering as to whether linux emulation 
could be used to run the LSI Megaraid storage manager or whether 
attempting to do so is a very bad idea..
