[openib-general] [HELP] Encounter Kernel Panic when Add MellanoxHCA Supporting on 2.6.9 Kernel

[Roland Dreier]

Hmm, I can't make it happen here unfortunately... I just get the
following on 2.6.12-rc5 with CONFIG_DEBUG_SPINLOCK:

[   26.001979] ib_mthca: Mellanox InfiniBand HCA driver v0.06-pre (November 8, 2004)
[   26.026622] ib_mthca: Initializing Mellanox Technologies MT23108 InfiniHost (0000:04:00.0)
[   27.326318] ib_mthca 0000:04:00.0: HCA FW version 3.0.1 is old (3.3.2 is current).
[   27.351207] ib_mthca 0000:04:00.0: If you have problems, try updating your HCA FW.

but it actually seems to work (well enough that the port goes to active).
