Open iSCSI in 2.6.17-1.2339.fc6

Tue Jul 4 16:53:05 UTC 2006

Hi all,

obviously there are still problems with open-iscsi in Fedora:

I retested with the latest development kernel (2.6.17-1.2339.fc6) in
Fedora devel
including open-iscsi version 1.0-595 (strings on iscsi_tcp.ko).

bonnie++ is running with the following output until it hangs:

Writing with putc()...
Writing intelligently...

After the second line the client freezes. The connection is a 100MBit
link.
I repeated the test several times. Sometimes bonnie++ went a bit
further, but the
client hangs after several seconds/minutes.

On the server I used IET 0.4.13 on  2.6.16-1.2289_FC6xen.

Details of the panic:

EIP is at iscsi_xmitworker+0x143/0x248 [libiscsi]
Process scsi_wq_0

Call Trace:
run_workqueue+0x86/0xc6 <c0434b14> worker_thread+0xd9/0x10d
kthread+0xc0/0xeb <c0402005> kernel_thread_helper+0x5/0xb
