FibrChanl-01 (fcd) B.11.23.1205 Fibre Channel Mass Storage Driver for HP-UX 11i v2 Release Notes (May 2012)

Table 16 HP-UX 11i v2 December 2005 Fixes
DescriptionDefect ID
After installation of PHKL_30257 MO library drives in a
10-drive optical jukebox in SCC mode are not visible any
SR: 8606413902
more. By changing to indexed mapping 8 devices are
visible, not all 10 drives.
A fix was applied to work around an ISP2312 controller
issue with PCI-X memory writes when these memory writes
SR: 8606414341
are intermixed with partial split completions for PCI-X
memory reads.
Concurrent BDRs issued to the same device when both
BDRs failed, the application that issued the commands
SR: 8606414166
hangs instead of timing out. Single BDRs repeatedly timed
out due to a timer reset issue. Both of these have been
corrected by changing the way that a failed BDR request
is retried.
A turbulent link may result in I/O hang in the fibre channel
controller firmware which triggers an I/O timeout fatal
SR: 8606414869
error processing in the fibre channel driver. The fibre
channel controller firmware was modified to notify the
driver once when multiple unsuccessful LIP (Loop
Initialization Primitive) sequences occur. This would help
the driver to flow control the I/Os and also to abort any
I/Os that are already posted to the controller firmware, if
the LIP storm persists for over 10 seconds.
