Senate and People of the FreeBSD Republic:

I just upgraded from the February SNAP release to the June one, and compiled
a hot-off-the-net 3.0-current kernel. By all accounts, that *should* have
gotten me the latest, fixed version of the ahc driver, right? At least I
thought so based on the numerous threads recently about it.

However, when I then tried running cdd, it said:
> cd1: SCB 0x1 - timed out while idle, LASTPHASE = 0x1, SCSISIGI = 0x0
> SEQADDR = 0x7 SCSISEQ = 0x12 SSTAT0 = 0x5 SSTAT1 = 0xa
> cd1: Queuing an Abort SCB
> cd1: Abort Message Sent
> cd1: SCB 1 = Abort completed.
> cd1: no longer in timeout
> cd1: SCB 0x1 - timed out while idle, LASTPHASE = 0x1, SCSISIGI = 0x0
> SEQADDR = 0x4 SCSISEQ = 0x12 SSTAT0 = 0x5 SSTAT1 = 0xa
> cd1: SCB 1: Immediate reset flags = 0x1
> ahc0: Issued Channel A Bus Reset, 1 SCBs aborted

(from scribblings on paper; I think I have all the numbers right, but
punctuation etc is approximate). What follows is a hang, not panic, and it's
definitely a system hang, not a SCSI hang, because I can't even switch
virtual consoles or press ^C.

What gives? Looks like a return of the problems in April to me. Is this a
known bug, or should I try and get a crash dump and start working on it?
For reference, I have an Adaptec 2940AU controller, and cd1 is a Toshiba
3401 2x CD-ROM drive. The program that crashes it is cdd-1.0-970519.

I'd be very grateful to anyone who has any suggestions on this!

	~Ben
