Gentle ping. LSI folks, would it make sense for Debian to apply this series to their 2.6.32.y-based kernel? Would some other format (a git tree instead of the current git am-ready patch series) be easier to review?

The most notable missing patch is the BKL conversion --- for Debian squeeze it seems safest to just keep using the BKL. I'd be happy for any thoughts you have.

Hi again, Jonathan Nieder wrote[0]: I am working on improving support for newer megaraid controllers in Debian squeeze's 2.6.32.y-based kernel. On top of what's in 2.6.32.y, Debian squeeze currently has the following patches applied: [ list at [1] below ] When Buford Peek needed support for a Dell PERC H710P I provided him with the following as a quick set of patches to test: [ list at [2] ] The result seemed to work ok. :) But it left out at least one important fix: f575c5d3ebdc Fix instance access in megasas_reset_timer It also is not particularly minimal. After applying all of the above, the following commits still remain unapplied: [ list at [3] ] Questions: 1) Are any of these important fixes that should be applied to 2.6.32.y so everyone who uses a 2.6.32-based kernel can start benefitting from them? No reply. Is this the right address to reach the megaraid_sas maintainers?
