	This is only occurring if the initiator has an active disk
connected to the target. 
	 
	The servers not connected to disks at the target do not have
this issue. I can load/unload connect/disconnect and the initiator
driver loads/unloads accordingly.
	 
	Not sure if this helps.

		Probably a deadlock stalling IBAL's PnP event callback
thread (there's only one system wide).  IPoIB depends on the PnP event
callback to do all its resource creation/destruction because it
generally gets called at DISPATCH_LEVEL and there's very little it can
do with the HCA driver.  The HCA driver's design requires blocking for
all verb operations despite the hardware processing commands
asynchronously and notifying of their completions form the DPC.

		Seems that RC4 has the same issue with SRP hanging other
IPoIB when the target quits without the initiator first performing a
clean "Eject" of the target device.

		 

		Reproduced by: 

		Start target (OFED Gen2 SRPT) 

		Start WinIB initiators

		Unload target driver (rmmod ib_srpt)

		WinIB initiators IPoIB complains "LAN Conn.. Network
Cable Is Unplugged"
