Adaptec ASR-8805 RAID adapter hangs when a CPU is set offline

Solution Unverified - Updated -

Issue

  • When setting a CPU offline with:

    echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/online
    

    IO to the adapter freezes until the CPU is brought back online.

  • If the adapter is used for the root filesystem and the CPU remains offline long enough, then the filesystem will be either shutdown (if it is XFS) or remounted read-only (if it is ext4) and a reboot will be required to recover.

Environment

  • Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 8 and 9
  • Adaptec ASR-8805 RAID adapter
