Hi,

Yes, as far as I understand, setting msi is not enough, because when I look at the code the host->can_queue variable is set to the wrong value for the Series-6 Card since Commit 395e5df79a95 ("scsi: aacraid: Remove reference to Series-9").

Before the patch the driver uses the lower 16 bits of status[3] as the maximum number of outstanding FIBs allowed by the Series-6 controller. After the patch is uses the upper 16 bits of status[3]. (comminit.c:581)

Kind regards,
Christian
