So, it appears to me that
a) the problem is in the aic7xxx low-level driver.
b) the problem will not be cured in the next 2.3 releases.

Allow me to repeat my previous questions:
1. Has anybody else experienced this loss of tagged command
   queueing on "add-single-device"?
2. Is anybody working on a solution, especially for the aic7xxx driver?

The "add-single-device" is **VERY** handy. I want to use it to be able to
switch my SCSI DAT tape on and off without the need to reboot. But if I
lose
the queue depth for my SCSI disks, I fear the perfomance penalty... :-(


Mit freundlichen Gruessen / best regards
