[Bug 1435509] Re: cciss: hangs in modprobe, prevents server from booting
** Description changed:
I've upgraded an Ubuntu 10.04 LTS server to 12.04 LTS. It now fails to
boot. More specifically, kernel 3.2.0-77 hangs in the cciss driver
during initialization.
The hardware is an HP ProLiant DL385 G2. The RAID controller is HP
- Smart Array P400:
+ Smart Array P600:
lspci -knn -s 06:01
06:01.0 RAID bus controller [0104]: Hewlett-Packard Company Smart Array P600 [103c:3220]
Subsystem: Hewlett-Packard Company 3 Gb/s SAS RAID [103c:3225]
Kernel driver in use: cciss
Kernel modules: cciss
I can observe the boot process over serial console (attached: serial-console.log). You can see the kernel messages about cciss being detected, udev messages about modprobe timing out followed by boot process timeouts and a failure to mount the root filesystem.
You can also see hung task messages from the kernel (kworker/0:2 and modprobe are both hung inside cciss), and you can see some of my futile attempts to look around in the initramfs.
I can boot an older kernel (2.6.32-73-server, left over from Ubuntu
10.04 LTS) just fine. I'm afraid dmesg and other bits of information
collected by apport for this bug report will be misleadingly from that
older kernel.
===================== WORKAROUND =====================
Add 'pci=noioapicreroute' to the kernel command line.
