#6.0

1. Driver name: smartpqi

2. Driver version: 1.0.3.2035-1OEM.600.0.0.2768847

3. Compatible ESX version(s): ESXi6.0

Fixes & Enhancements:
---------------------

1. Fixed an issue where the crash dump was not successfully generated in NUMA machine.

2. Fixed an issue for data store unmount failure after trying driver unload. When the OS is on the controller and trying to unload the driver, 
unload will fail. We will not be able to mount datastore back after this and system will hang.

3. Fixed an issue for the discovery failure. During rescan devices a controller command is failing and that result in rescan failure.

4. Fixed an issue where "Raid map too large" when RAID5 created with 33 SSDs. 
The RAID map data exceeds the statically allocated RAID map structure size.

5. Fixed an issue for PSOD after initiating two controller lockup. The PSOD was observed while performing array creation and deletion
in a loop followed by two controller test lockup.

6. Fixed an issue for driver unload failure after expander device was removed. The driver unload operation failed after
performing expander device cable hot remove and re-insert.

7. Added a fix for PSOD while shutting down device driver. After initiating reboot from ESXi shell, 
PSOD was observed while doing hard drive hot remove/re-insert. Hard drive hot plug was done while ESXI DCUI displaying 
"shutting down device drivers" message. At this point system will try to unload the all device drivers.

8. Added a fix for PSOD during driver unload after controller lockup. PSOD occurred after controller test lockup and followed 
by a reboot from ESXi shell.

9. Added an enhancement to honour the CPU count while creating operational queues.

10. Fixed an issue to resolve unresponsive disks after a vSphere Quick Boot is executed.

11. Fixed an issue where the unload driver operation was failing.

12. Fixed an issue where the memory allocation failure was happening under heavy load.

13. Fixed an issue when in vSAN multipath environment, the drives became offline when the active path is removed.

14. Fixed an issue when the system crashes during driver reboot.

15. Fixed an issue where the incorrect target SAS address was displayed under multipath information for external RAID arrays.

16. Added an enhancement to remove "Below 4 GB" DMA memory usage. The driver always requests the physical memory address 
below 4 GB range and there might not be any DMA memory available in that range.
