Kernel output of 3 kernel starts with connected / disconnected HDDs and different kernels

+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #151661 +++

Hi,

my english language is not so good. I hope you understand what I write here.

The kernel 4.12.8 crashes after errors from aacraid and after the start of the "kernel device manager" when I connect 8 HDDs (power on) to the ICP9087MA-RAID-Controller. (See attachment 0_...)

The crash is before the Kernel opens log files in /var/log. I found NO entries in the log files. So I configure grub (in /etc/default/grub) and the kernel to use the serial line (/dev/ttyS0, COM1) as the console. On my Notebook I capture the serial output of the starting kernel with minicom.

If I disconnect the 8 HDDs (power off) the kernel 4.12.8 starts normal and I can use the system but without the two Host drives (2 x RAID-5) of the ICP9087MA.
(See attachment 1_...)

When I use different kernels of version 3.x.x (from kernel.org or Debian) all works fine when the 8 HDDs are connected to the ICP9087MA-Raid-Controller. (See attachment 2_...)

Patch to move pci check to pcie cards

Hi,

I've attached a patch based on Linus' current tree, but should apply to your kernel. Can you try this patch, and report back.

Thanks, -Dave Carroll

Kernel_output_after_patch_from_Dave_Carroll.cap

Hello Dave Carroll,

I apply the patch and put the output of the kernel start (4.12.8) as a attachment.

The Kernel crashes again at the "Kernel Device Manager" after errors from the aacraid.

Best Regards

Kernel_crash_(4.12.9)_with_4_drives_at_the_ICP9087MA

Hi,

I tried the actual stable Kernel 4.12.9.
This Kernel crashes also after errors of aacraid and after the start of the "kernel Device Manager".
Have a look to the attachment with the output of the kernel start.
