It started with a sporadic message in syslog: "CAM tried to send a buffer larger than the ecount size" This message is not the fault itself, but a consecutive fault, after a read error from the CAM. This happens only on several CAMs, several hardware, and of course sporadic. It is a consecutive fault, if the last read from the CAM did fail. I guess this will not happen on all CAMs, but at least it did on mine. There was a write error to the CAM and during the re-initialization procedure, the CAM finished the last read, although it got a RS. The write error to the CAM happened because a race condition between HC write, checking DA and FR. This patch added an additional check for DA(RE), just after checking FR. It is important to read the CAMs status register again, to give the CAM the necessary time for a proper reaction to HC. Please note the description within the source code (patch below).

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
