Yesterday, just when I thought that maybe I had some interesting data worth sending to you, I noticed that 4.9-RC1 was out. So I tested for the symptoms in that and I have to admit that IT WORKS IN 4.9-RC1 ! Wonderful! I.e., the machine does boot from a rebuilding array and array degradation at runtime doesn't make the machine hang because of storage failure. All of that with SMP, APIC_IO and HT enabled. No need to include the irrelevant ISP driver (see the attachments for an explanation of this comment). In the newsgroups, I've noticed other people complaing about various aac-based hardware under FreeBSD. I am aware that there have been changes to dev/aac/* between 4.8 and 4.9. I'm not sure whether you have managed to squash the bug, or if the remedy was incidental, and whether or not the bug was in the aac drivers or elsewhere in the system (APIC handling? DMA mapping?). Therefore, just in case you were interested, the information I gathered in 4.8 is attached to this message. Hmm. Now that this is solved, I'd like to focus on the defunct aaccli. I guess I'd better start another thread related to that. Thanks for the great job that you're doing in the FreeBSD team. And, thanks for your patience with me.
