kernel: mbox_read: Bad State


Got the below entry/error in system status report of a prod server.

"kernel: mbox_read: Bad State"

Imagining mbox is related to mailbox, I checked mqueue's health which is perfectly working. Checked all those what my little brain can think of like disk space issues, memory issues, any scheduled jobs running at the time of this message. But, this is one of those healthy servers.

Tried google-ing, but it didn't help. Seems there is an answer in redhat site but I didn't subscribe to them.

Please, help.

Has to do with the Emulex LPFC HBA card. See for example one of the LXRs around at http://www.cs.fsu.edu/~baker/devices...r.c?v=2.6.25.8 (choose your kernel version).
