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.

It was observed on an ISP8324 16Gb HBA with fw=8.08.203 (d0d5) in a PowerPC64 machine that pkt->entry_type was MBX_IOCB_TYPE/0x39 with an sp->type SRB_SCSI_CMD which is invalid and should not be possible. Reading the entry_type from the crash dump shows the expected value of STATUS_TYPE/0x03 but the call trace shows that qla24xx_mbx_iocb_entry() is used. Add a check to verify for consistency and reset the HBA if an invalid state is reached. Obviously, this is only a workaround until the real problem is solved.
