2013-04-30 20:45:42 Kent Baxley description It was found in ledmon 0.74-1 that functionality on Dell SSD devices broke. The Dell PCIE SSDs do not have a 'hostN' field in their sysfs paths as they are block devices directly connected to their host PCI device. A patch has been applied upstream and went into ledmon 0.75 to address the issue: http://ledmon.git.sourceforge.net/git/gitweb.cgi?p=ledmon/ledmon;a=commitdiff;h=d6b7c55869fa7a5224844407ef2d5aab785c4db8 [Impact] * The ledmon version included in Raring contained a bug that broke PCIe SSD devices on Dell Server Hardware. The Dell PCIE SSDs do not have a 'hostN' field in their sysfs paths as they are block devices directly connected to their host PCI device. * The bug caused these devices to stop being recognized properly in the OS. [Test Case] * Install ledmon 0.74-1 onto a raring server with the appropriate PCIE SSD hardware. * run 'sudo ledmon' to start the led monitor. * Look in /var/log/syslog..you'll see messages such as the following repeated continuously several times as the OS tries to figure out what the SSD device is: ledmon[2449]: Device (null) : No host_id! ledmon[2449]: DETACHED DEV '(null)' in failed state * With the upstream patch in place and after restarting ledmon, the "no host_id" and "DETACHED_DEV" messages will go away and the PCIe SSD devices are detected correctly. [Regression Potential] * Low. This fix is very targeted to the PCIE SSD hardware on Dell systems, and should not break any other devices. * Tested by me on the specific hardware to ensure that the regression has gone away. [Other Info] Here is the upstream commit that eventually went into upstream ledmon 0.75:
