Adaptec ASR-8805 RAID adapter hangs when a CPU is set offline
Issue
-
When setting a CPU offline with:
echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/onlineIO 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
