I know HP has some policy of removing old devices from the ccis and hpsa drivers, can we not work around that? It is really annoying. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

After installing that kernel, building a new initrd, adding hpsa_allow_any=1, I was able to boot the system and see the /dev/sda device appear. So far so good. However, the system is unable to complete boot-up because systemd is expecting a device called /dev/cciss/c0d0p1 to be mounted. I guess this is the auto-generated mount-unit based on fstab. I tried changing the fstab to mount /dev/sda1 as root, but that didn't help. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

So what is the status here?

a) with RC2, fresh installation not possible, hardware isn't recognised. b) with the patch, I was able to boot an installation system, but I was unable to create an initrd that would look for the right device (/dev/sda instead of /dev/ccis/c0d0). -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

Created attachment 702681 [details] DUD for Leap42.2

Please try this DUD. I tested the equivalent DUD for SLES12 SP2, but I couldn't test Leap42.2 because it's not on the PXE server for the lab yet.

The parameter hpsa.hpsa_allow_any is NOT needed (I changed the default, as this driver has been made explicitly for CCISS device support).

Sources in IBS project home:mwilck:bsc1006175.

Hi Martin I retrieved the dud and put on our tftp server, then I booted an install system with "dud=tftp://server/install/hpsa.dud". The process seems to work fine, but the module didn't load, "invalid module format". I presume due to a mismatch in kernel versions, the installer is 4.4.27, the updated hpsa is 4.4.21-69. I tried loading with -f too, didn't work either. I was going to try to load it into the updated system on boot-up, but I expect I would have the same problem. It's the first time I try using a DUD, I might well have missed something? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

During my own testing, I found that module loading of the updated HPSA driver indeed didn't occur immediately when the DUD had been loaded, but later on when YaST displayed the "detecting hardware" screen. Can you confirm that? This is the first time I'm building a DUD with the SUSE internal toolset, so I may have overlooked something here. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

I just tested a full SLES12 SP2 installation on host "salieri" in the lab, and it worked just like this. The updated hpsa driver was loaded after YaST started (after the "License Agreement" and "Registration" screens). Installation completed successfully without any command-line actions. Firstboot succeeded. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

What's left to do here? the kernel seems to be released, what about sg3_utils? Also a warning in the release notes would be good still

The sg3_utils changes aren't yet queued for maintenance. Also I'm still waiting for feedback on the latest DUD (cf. comment 80).

I'm sorry, I haven't had the time yet. (the system has actually been waiting at the installer prompt for 6 days). -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

I have a fresh installation of Leap421, You mean: run the zypper dup to Leap422, then try to boot :

a) without DUD and b) without hpsa.hpsa_allow_any=1 and c) with cciss.cciss_allow_hpsa=0

Isn't the problem still going to be that the cciss module does not recognise the HP Smart Array 6i controller?

That's what I'd like to clarify. "cciss_allow_hpsa" is set to 1 by default. The meaning of flag (which is sort of misnamed IMO) is "Prevent cciss driver from accessing hardware known to be supported by the hpsa driver". Thus by setting the flag to 0, the cciss driver might actually detect that hardware again. ... which would basically obsolete all 89 comments made on this bug so far. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
