Last Modified: Jul 13, 2024

Fixed In:
12.1.0, 11.6.4

Opened: Nov 18, 2015

Severity: 3-Major

Symptoms

Some hardware platforms provide insufficient diagnostic information in the hsb_snapshot to determine the problem the system encounters. (The hsb_snapshot command gathers information from the high speed bridge (HSB) for diagnostic purposes.) Additional HSB debug registers are needed to perform full diagnostics.

Impact

Some HSB debug registers are needed to provide full diagnostics.

Conditions

Running the hsb_snapshot command in the qkview utility.

Workaround

None,

Fix Information

The hsb_snapshot now supports all HSBE2 PDE/MGMT_RING, etc., debug and XLMAC registers, to support a more robust diagnostic operations.
