Limitations: N/A
Dependencies: N/A

Version 1.1.5-2434 (ServeRAID 8.40)

Problems fixed:

  • Fixed a problem with 64-bit largesmp configurations stepping on the UP configurations in the following kernels:

    2.6.9-42.EL
    2.6.9-36.1.EL
    2.6.9-36.EL
    2.6.9-34.19.EL
    2.6.9-34.EL
    2.6.9-32.EL
    2.6.9-27.EL
    2.6.9-22.25.EL
     
  • Fixed a community bug in ioctl calls dealing with 32-bit applications in 64-bit kernels.

Enhancements:
