Re: QLogicFC problems with 2.4.x?
This is just to let everyone know that, thanks to Craig Ruff, I now have qlogicfc working under 2.4.11 on my ES40 and GS80. The secret is to set CONNECTION_PREFERENCE to P2P_ONLY instead of LOOP_ONLY, and to build it in to the kernel instead of as a module. My problem now is that the GS80 oopses when I try to mke2fs the second stripe set on the HSG80. This _only_ happens on the second mke2fs, not the first. Screen dump is as follows: #mke2fs /dev/sde2 Writing inode tables: done Writing superblocks and filesystem accounting information: pci_map_sg failed: could not allocate dma page tables pci_map_sg failed: could not allocate dma page tables pci_map_sg failed: could not allocate dma page tables pci_map_sg failed: could not allocate dma page tables pci_map_sg failed: could not allocate dma page tables pci_map_sg failed: could not allocate dma page tables pci_map_sg failed: could not allocate dma page tables pci_map_sg failed: could not allocate dma page tables Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address 003ffc1a I've inlined the ksymoops output below.

Re: QLogicFC problems with 2.4.x?
This is just to let everyone know that, thanks to Craig Ruff, I now have qlogicfc working under 2.4.11 on my ES40 and GS80. The secret is to set CONNECTION_PREFERENCE to P2P_ONLY instead of LOOP_ONLY, and to build it in to the kernel instead of as a module. My problem now is that the GS80 oopses when I try to mke2fs the second stripe set on the HSG80. This _only_ happens on the second mke2fs, not the first. Screen dump is as follows: #mke2fs /dev/sde2 Writing inode tables: done Writing superblocks and filesystem accounting information: pci_map_sg failed: could not allocate dma page tables pci_map_sg failed: could not allocate dma page tables pci_map_sg failed: could not allocate dma page tables pci_map_sg failed: could not allocate dma page tables pci_map_sg failed: could not allocate dma page tables pci_map_sg failed: could not allocate dma page tables pci_map_sg failed: could not allocate dma page tables pci_map_sg failed: could not allocate dma page tables Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address 003ffc1a I've inlined the ksymoops output below.

The only caveats are that one of the CPUs was out of the system at the time (hence 31 CPUs, not 32), and that we haven't yet finished the DISCONTIGMEM support for Alpha (hence the 480GB of memory, instead of the real 256GB). Needless to say, things like kernel builds run _really_ fast. Heck, I could put all of my workstation (several times over, in fact) into RAM on this thing!

Sorry...check the post I made a few hours ago. Unless I count my digits wrong, that's ~24GB of memory. The GS320 we booted here a while ago has 256GB. Either way, tho', that's a _lot_ of memory! - Pete - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/

And not to get off-topic, but there are bigger problems with AIM7 tests than the VM (like the fact that they have hundreds of runnable processes at any given time which our global run queue doesn't handle well).
