This sort-of makes it work. I get some complaints about unaligned access

=> controller slot=0 create type=logicaldrive drives=all raid=1 drivetype=sas

This seems to be coming out of user space. We'll work with the application
folks to investigate. There is a library called infomanager that's used
by the app. There may be an issue there. Call you strace the program and
send me the results? I haven't seen this in my lab with a vendor kernel.


What machine is this for? For x86-64, the above are non-canonical addresses. IA64?
