This patch is over a month old, do you know Justin if is currently in mainline? Nope. - James? Could it possibly get added to 3.12.x -stable as well? I've patched against 3.12.0 for now -- I'll let you know if there are any issues-- so far so good, thanks again. Justin. Update: System uptime with the patch is 7+ days under extensive load at times and I've had no issues to date. I just checked the current linux git repo (3.13-rc2) and found this patch has not been included. Please advise if any further testing or validation needs to be completed to help get this into -stable/-mainline.

No, it just means that your 3ware controller does not handle the WRITE SAME command and we fall back to manually writing out zeroes. I posted a patch a while back that prevents WRITE SAME being issued for controllers that do not pass the commands through to disk directly: http://marc.info/?l=linux-scsim=138252394614920w=2 -- Martin K.
