Issue: During online Firmware upgrade operations it is possible that MaxDevHandles filled in IOCFacts may change with new FW. With this we may observe kernel panics when driver try to access the pd_handles or blocking_handles buffers at offset greater than the old firmware's MaxDevHandle value. Fix: _base_check_ioc_facts_changes() looks for increase/decrease in IOCFacts attributes during online firmware upgrade and increases the pd_handles, blocking_handles, etc buffer sizes to new firmware's MaxDevHandle value if this new firmware's MaxDevHandle value is greater than the old firmware's MaxDevHandle value.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. 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.
