Package: linux-2.6
Severity: important
Hi,
when running a Debian system as VMware guest system one could get SCSI
timeouts when there is massive workload on the host system. Since some
kernel version these will get the filesystems remounted read-only, which
probably makes sense for real hardware, but doesn't make sense for
emulated hardware. Instead it should just wait a bit longer.
See
http://www.tuxyturvy.com/blog/index.php?/archives/31-VMware-ESX-and-ext3-journal-aborts.html
for some details and what needs to be changed in the kernel. Redhat and
SuSE seem to have this change in their kernels already it seems and
without that change it's impossible to run Debian as VMWare guest
reliable.
Bye

Changes:
linux-2.6 (2.6.18.dfsg.1-17) stable; urgency=high
.
* [futex] Fix address computation in compat code, fixing hangs
on sparc64. (closes: #433187)
* [x86_64] Mask the NX bit in mk_pte_phys to avoid triggering a RSVD type
page fault on non-NX capable systems which causes a crash.
(closes: #414742)
* [fusion] Avoid holding the device busy for too long in the low level
driver, which was causing filesystems in VMWare guests to get remounted
read-only under load. (closes: #453120)
* Add UNUSUAL_DEV entries for supertop usb drives which require the
IGNORE_RESIDUE flag. (closes: #455856)
* [sparc64] Enable CONFIG_USB_SERIAL (closes: #412740)
