I have installed 4.1 and ran the smart test. The kernel seems that is not crashing but many errors are found in the log (see the attachment).

They all have the latest firmware. OS is Ubuntu 14.04. Tested with kernel 3.13.0, 3.16.0, 3.19.0. To reproduce the crash faster: I have created a script and run: smartctl -a -d cciss,x /dev/sg0, where x=0..11 in a while (true). It crashed in less than a minute. ======================================= [Jun 10 10:16:17] kernel: [ 13.422630] Fusion MPT base driver 3.04.20 [Jun 10 10:16:17] kernel: [ 13.422631] Copyright (c) 1999-2008 LSI Corporation [Jun 10 10:16:17] kernel: [ 13.427318] Fusion MPT misc device (ioctl) driver 3.04.20 [Jun 10 10:16:17] kernel: [ 13.427497] mptctl: Registered with Fusion MPT base driver [Jun 10 10:16:17] kernel: [ 13.427499] mptctl: /dev/mptctl @ (major,minor=10,220) [Jun 10 12:24:05] kernel: [ 7681.185037] INFO: task smartctl:22654 blocked for more than 120 seconds.
