I can totally disable DMA (NICs etc. must use DMA) on the machines and since they
are in production and I only see the corruption as an after-effect when the boxes
panic or deadlock for another reason I'm not easily able to reproduce this. Also,
we do disable MSI for devices behind HT2000 chipsets because of a chip bug, but
not on HT1000 currently. However, MSI isn't on on 6.x anyway.

Hi, John.

Anton Yuzhaninov has mentioned in the top of this thread that
this bug may be easy reproduced by using external PCI-X card.
He tried use PCI-X Marvell card and got lots of corruptions on
the integrated HT1000. Can you or Soren try the same way to
reproduce?
As I told earlier the fileserver I have here with the HT1000 chip also has a marvel 6081 and it is on PCI-X. There are 4 disks on each and it moves lots of data around on a daily basis, no problems whatsoever. I have planned downtime today on it and will experiment with it, but I can't hold it off for too long...
