Public bug reported: After upgrading from linux-image-2.6.38-8-server to linux- image-2.6.38-10-server one of our fileservers wouldn't come up after the next reboot.
I've attached a "screenshot" of the console output. Transcription (of the relevant parts): ata13.00: failed to IDENTIFY (I/O error, err_mask=0x40) ata13.00: disabled scsci_alloc_sdev: Allocation failure during SCSI scanning, some SCSI devices might not be configured ata14.00: failed to IDENTIFY (I/O error, err_mask=0x40) ata14.00: failed to IDENTIFY (I/O error, err_mask=0x40) ata14: limiting SATA link speed to 1.5 Gbps ata14.00: limiting speed to UDMA7:PIO5 ata14.00: failed to IDENTIFY (I/O error, err_mask=0x40) ata14.00: disabled scsci_alloc_sdev: Allocation failure during SCSI scanning, some SCSI devices might not be configured Selecting the older 2.6.38-8 kernel at the grub prompt allows the server to boot normally. 2.6.38-11 shows the same problem as -10. This server has 6 disks (2x Seagate ST3250318AS, 4x Hitachi HDS5C302) all connected via a Supermicro AOC-SASLP-MV8 8 Port SAS/SATA Controller. The default mvsas kernel module is used.
