[patch 13/13] qdio: FCP/SCSI write I/O stagnates on LPAR

From: Martin Schwidefsky
Date: Tue Feb 19 2008 - 09:50:00 EST


From: Ursula Braun <braunu@xxxxxxxxxx>

If running on LPAR, qdio might overlook an incoming buffer in certain
scenarios. The patch makes sure that incoming buffers are detected
immediately in all situations.
