Bug Fix Advisory

Topic

Updated sg3_utils packages that fix one bug are now available for Red Hat
Enterprise Linux 6.

Description

The sg3_utils packages contain a collection of tools for SCSI devices that use
the Linux SCSI generic (sg) interface. This collection includes utilities for
database copying based on "dd" syntax and semantics (the "sg_dd", "sgp_dd" and
"sgm_dd" commands), INQUIRY data checking and associated pages ("sg_inq"), mode
and log page checking ("sg_modes" and "sg_logs"), disk spinning ("sg_start") and
self-tests ("sg_senddiag"), as well as other utilities. It also contains the
rescan-scsi-bus.sh script.

This update fixes the following bug:

• The logic used in the show_devices() function (as used by the "sginfo"
  command) to identify the available storage devices opened these devices by
  scanning the /dev directory. Consequently, the /dev/snapshot file was opened,
  causing the system to prepare for suspend/hibernate and, as a part of that, to
  block hot-added CPUs from being activated. To fix this bug, the logic used in
  the show_devices() function to decide, which devices to open, has been adjusted.
  As a result, running the "sginfo -l" command no longer has the unintended side
  effect of blocking the activation of hot-added CPUs. (BZ#920687)
  

Users of sg3_utils are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which fix
this bug.
