I recently recieved a patch from grant@torque.net attempting to test
ppSCSI. It appears to work fine on SMP machines, but my UP machine has
problems. All code is compiled modularly, and here is the system and a
brief analysis:
The problem:
insmod hangs inserting onscsi.o
The procedure:
eclipse:~# insmod parport
eclipse:~# insmod scsi_mod
eclipse:~# insmod ppscsi
eclipse:~# insmod sg
eclipse:~# insmod onscsi verbose=2 ( --> hang )
The output from 'dmesg':
ppSCSI 1.0 installed
onscsi.1: signature 0xb5f
onscsi.1: OnSpec 90c26 version 12
onscsi.1: test port 0x378 mode 0 errors 0
onscsi.1: Target 0, bl=36 us=0
bug: kernel timer added twice at c406610d.
onscsi.1: Command status 00010000 last phase 0
The trace: (insmod -m scsi_mod)

I've heard rumors that this may be tickled with -ac7 ... I'm just
looking for someone to verify if this is so or not, and if it makes it
into 2.2.3 and then possibly if 2.2.3 will be coming out "soon".
Unfortunately I cannot spend a lot of time using Linux this week
(work...) so I'd rather not go too deep into bug chasing if at all
possible. But I'll do what I can to help.
Thanks,
Christopher
