PROBLEM (87635) (PATCH ID: )
It is possible for an I/O to be returned to the driver by the adapter firmware
with no status if the I/O was aborted during a burst of bus resets. The result
was an error of the type "Unexpected status returned - 0x0" being logged in the
binary error log. The I/O itself would be reissued by the driver.

PROBLEM: (87833, 90019, 90048, 90162, 90165, 90237, 90330, 90583, 90808, 91305,

A system hang, bus hang or panic could occur if a burst of bus resets are
received. A timing window exists where by the adapter still has context of
an I/O which had been aborted because of a bus reset. Depending on the state
of that I/O this could result in a Machine Check or Kernel Memory Fault panic
of the system.

This could also result in the driver's failure to clear an internal state flag
causing a bus or system hang condition.

PROBLEM (90055, 90416, 90837, 90165) (PATCH ID: )

The driver failed to handle data underrun conditions properly which could
result in a read request being returned with a byte count that is more than
what was actually read.

PROBLEM (94461) (PATCH ID: )

A system hang could occur during a system boot if a target failed to respond
to the driver's inquiry command. If the command timed out the driver failed
to return the appropriate error to the configuration subsystem. As a result
the inquiry command was reissued. This results in an endless loop if the target
fails to ever respond.

PROBLEM (94886) (PATCH ID: )

A Kernel Memory Fault panic could occur during boot if the verification
of the adapter should fail. This condition could occur if an unsupported
variant of the adapter is found on the system or if an error occurred when
trying to access the adapters registers during initialization.

PROBLEM (93044) (PATCH ID: )
A small timing window exist that could result in an I/O being returned with
a good status if an attempt is made to abort the I/O during a bus or device
reset. This fix patch prevents an abort from being issued by the driver during
a reset and thus preserving the correct status of the I/O.
