The original reporter didn't provide logs...logs would not help. Here's
the original text of this issue as reported by NetApp test engineer.
Problem report from NetApp:
We’re testing Ubuntu 18.04 before its upcoming release this month and have
found that the most recent kernel that they have pulled in (4.15.0-15-generic)
contains the lpfc driver 12.0.0.0. This driver version seems to have lost
support for the LPe16002-M6 adapter but it DOES have support for the
LPe16002B-M6 adapter.
I’m assuming that you guys are major contributors to your own lpfc driver, so
I’m hoping you can shed some light on this one before I have to resort to going
out to the community.
The previous lpfc version, 11.4.0.1, that was in an Ubuntu 18.04 beta, worked
fine on the “non-B” card.

Title:
Lancer A0 Asic HBA's won't boot with 18.04
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
We have discovered that an early asic model (A0) of our 16/32GB HBA's doesn't
boot with the lpfc driver in Ubuntu 18.04.
After further review and discussion, this has been deemed a low risk
issue since early A0 HBA's were only ever shipped to OEMs for test
purposes. These cards were never shipped to end customers. We have
been working to replace those cards whenever we discover them.
We'll leave it up to Canonical to decide whether they want to pull
this in this single patch to an 18.04 subsequent update.
Symptom: Ubuntu 18.04 with lpfc driver 12.0.0.0 they can't see LPe16002-M6
but can see LPe16002B-M6
Resolution: new lpfc driver patch update.
scsi: lpfc: Fix WQ/CQ creation for older asic's.
