(ccing linux-ide) Tejun, another one of these reset issues? --
Yeah, looks like it. I just sent the patch for #upstream-fixes and will forward it to -stable once it gets into #upstream-fixes. http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.ide/34077 Thanks. -- tejun --
I have this patch actually applied and had switched off the computer afterwards completely for more than one hour two times. Each time it booted then (this was the patch you suggested initially to Many Maxwell this month to this list). Everything seems to work fine, but my dmesg and /var/log/messages is flooded with this now: Aug 29 23:20:39 zappa ata1: EH complete Aug 29 23:20:41 zappa ata1: EH complete Aug 29 23:20:47 zappa ata1: EH complete Aug 29 23:20:49 zappa ata1: EH complete Aug 29 23:20:51 zappa ata1: EH complete Aug 29 23:20:53 zappa ata1: EH complete Aug 29 23:20:55 zappa ata1: EH complete Aug 29 23:20:56 zappa ata1: EH complete Aug 29 23:20:59 zappa ata1: EH complete Aug 29 23:21:01 zappa ata1: EH complete I am curious if it boots tomorrow after sleeping for one night :-P Regards, Konsti -- GPG KeyID EF62FCEF Fingerprint: 13C9 B16B 9844 EC15 CC2E A080 1E69 3FDA EF62 FCEF --
Hmm... Can you post full dmesg output? We used to see things like above when ATAPI CHECK SENSE handling somehow failed to tell EH that it was an exception not worth whining about. Maybe EH action mask is not being I somehow feel pretty optimistic about that part. :-) -- tejun --
Of course :-) dmesg is attached with patch applied. At the end of the patch it (of course) continues, but only with: ata1: EH complete ata1: EH complete ata1: EH complete Hmn, to take my pants down entirely: What is this "EH"? And how does the change of the .reset function affect this? May be, I You are right, it started immediately without a hitch this morning after sleeping entirely for a couple of hours.

Your controller is raising exception continuously for some reason. Have no idea yet. Can you please apply the attached patch and post the resulting dmesg? -- tejun
Of course. Patch applied, here is dmesg output, looks interesting now - but anything works fine so far. Regards, Konsti -- GPG KeyID EF62FCEF Fingerprint: 13C9 B16B 9844 EC15 CC2E A080 1E69 3FDA EF62 FCEF
(cc'ing linux-ide) I think it's more circa 2.6.22 but in my memory terms, which sucks, Hmm... someone is scheduling EH incessantly without any error or action set. Can you please try the attached patch? -- tejun
I did and put here all dmesg gave me. Do you want to get the whole stuff from the beginning? /var/log/messages has ist, but it is 416k, I put it on a ftp server somewhere out there then. Or is something else recommended? Konsti -- GPG KeyID EF62FCEF Fingerprint: 13C9 B16B 9844 EC15 CC2E A080 1E69 3FDA EF62 FCEF
The excerpt is fine but please turn on CONFIG_KALLSYMS. The stack dump is pretty much meaningless without it. Thanks. -- tejun --
Yea, of course... my bad. First I wondered to turn this on or deliver ;-) -- GPG KeyID EF62FCEF Fingerprint: 13C9 B16B 9844 EC15 CC2E A080 1E69 3FDA EF62 FCEF
I'm seeing a similar problem after upgrading from 2.6.25.14-108.fc9.x86_64 to 2.6.27-rc6. From what I can tell the messages Sep 23 10:27:20 pangw kernel: ata6: EH pending after 5 tries, giving up Sep 23 10:27:20 pangw kernel: ata6: EH complete are printed for a disconnected ATA port that's a neighbor of one that's occupied. these are the ports that are in use: Sep 23 10:19:40 pangw kernel: ata1.00: ATA-6: ST3160023A, 3.01, max UDMA/100 Sep 23 10:19:40 pangw kernel: ata2.00: ATAPI: _NEC DVD_RW ND-3550A, 1.05, max UDMA/33 [PATA] Sep 23 10:19:40 pangw kernel: ata5: SATA link up 3.0 Gbps (SStatus 123 SControl 300) The WDC drive was previously on ata3 and the message were then printed for ata4.

Mainly this is the patch you posted in http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=122033025206886&w=2 which I replied with a useless reply containing no debug.

Sorry about lack of response. I was on vacation after a series of conferences. There's a bug entry for this problem and I just posted a patch. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11615 Can you please try the patch attached there and post the result there? Thanks. -- tejun --
Well, this Patch simply installs the old weird behaviour with the result in sometimes no cold boot possible yielding into ataX: link too slow to response ... ataX: COMRESET failed (errno=-16) After that powercycle required. I wrote it down from memory. If there is a detailed log required I can create them tomorrow when I have my Hands back onto the machine.

Please apply the attached patch and see whether the problem goes away. Also, can you test whether hotplug works with the patch applied? CK804 had problems with hotplug w/ HRST removed. I wanna make sure nf2/3 doesn't have the same problem. Thanks. -- tejun
Erm... I never did Hotplug on SATA, should I plug out the Disk out of the Mainboard Connector to see what happens? I suspect I need another Thats no problem, but one question: go onto vanilla 2.6.27_rc7 WITH or withOUT sata_nv-reinstate-nv_hardreset.patch?

Hmm... this is proving to be much more difficult than I expected. :-( Can you please try the attached patch? Thanks. -- tejun
Hello! The patch before, I told it always boots but the last two days I had much difficulties to boot. It was hard resetting and waiting a couple of times before bailing out with no mountable root FS. One time it was switched off three hours and the next time overnight, I powercyced a couple of times. If I am the only one experiencing this difficulties (am I the only one with this chipset/revision reporting?), shouldn't we consider this machine... broken? I change SATA cables from time to time, but these seem all to be okay. I mean, if it is really _that_ strange... I fetched 2.6.27 now and tried this patch. A short powercycle, reboot wasn't a problem yesterday, this morning also not, so looks well so far, tihs is how /var/log/messages looks now: Oct 17 07:24:49 zappa sata_nv 0000:00:0a.0: version 3.5 Oct 17 07:24:49 zappa ACPI: PCI Interrupt Link [LTID] enabled at IRQ 21 Oct 17 07:24:49 zappa sata_nv 0000:00:0a.0: PCI INT A -> Link[LTID] -> GSI 21 (level, low) -> IRQ 21 Oct 17 07:24:49 zappa sata_nv 0000:00:0a.0: setting latency timer to 64 Oct 17 07:24:49 zappa scsi0 : sata_nv Oct 17 07:24:49 zappa scsi1 : sata_nv Oct 17 07:24:49 zappa ata1: SATA max UDMA/133 cmd 0xf80 ctl 0xf00 bmdma 0xd800 irq 21 Oct 17 07:24:49 zappa ata2: SATA max UDMA/133 cmd 0xe80 ctl 0xe00 bmdma 0xd808 irq 21 Oct 17 07:24:49 zappa ata1: hard resetting link Oct 17 07:24:49 zappa ata1: SATA link down (SStatus 0 SControl 300) Oct 17 07:24:49 zappa ata1: EH complete Oct 17 07:24:49 zappa ata2: hard resetting link Oct 17 07:24:49 zappa XXX CLASSIFY 01:00:00 Oct 17 07:24:49 zappa ata2: SATA link up 1.5 Gbps (SStatus 113 SControl 300) Oct 17 07:24:49 zappa ata2.00: ATA-7: SAMSUNG HD753LJ, 1AA01106, max UDMA7 Oct 17 07:24:49 zappa ata2.00: 1465149168 sectors, multi 16: LBA48 NCQ (depth 0/32) Oct 17 07:24:49 zappa ata2.00: configured for UDMA/133 Oct 17 07:24:49 zappa ata2: EH complete Oct 17 07:24:49 zappa isa bounce pool size: 16 pages Oct 17 07:24:49 zappa scsi 1:0:0:0: Direct-Access ATA ...
Eh... I just bought a used opteron system with nf2/3. I will receive the machine tomorrow. Hopefully, I'll be able find out what the heck is going on here. Thanks. -- tejun --
Hello Tejun! After my short reply I had a 2.6.27 running with [-- Attachment #2: sata_nv-nf2-hrst-debug-take2.patch --] fine so far. It bootet immediately at any time I powercycled the machine. Hot, cold and reboot seems to be no problem, no /var/log/messages flooding also. I just wanted to inform you, whatever the investigations result into, on _my_ machine this incarnation is just fine. Regards, Konsti -- GPG KeyID EF62FCEF Fingerprint: 13C9 B16B 9844 EC15 CC2E A080 1E69 3FDA EF62 FCEF --
Great. My test machine just confirmed the fix too (my first purchase was borked so I had to get another one so the delay). I'll forward the fix to upstream. Thanks a lot. -- tejun --
No Problem at all. If something gets borked - which absolutely is allowed to happen - I have fun to sort this out. Regards, Konsti -- GPG KeyID EF62FCEF Fingerprint: 13C9 B16B 9844 EC15 CC2E A080 1E69 3FDA EF62 FCEF --
I'm experiencing this issue with CD-RWs only. Power cycling allows me to eject
the CD-RW. I'm using an ASUS G50V laptop with kernel 2.6.27-gentoo-r4.

It's a different failure on a different controller. Can you please file a bug report on bugzilla.kernel.org and... 1. Reproduce the problem with kernel-2.6.28-rc8. 2. Attach boot and the failure kernel log. 3. Attach the output of "lspci -nn". Thanks. -- tejun --
Yes, with 2.6.25 it always had a clean booting system. From time to time I do an update and with some 2.6.26_rcX I had problems the system not solving a cold boot sometimes. Long I suspected a hardware issue but one time I went down to 2.6.25 and the problem was away. Then I updated to 2.6.27_rcX because I was hunting down some nfsv4 error, considering this as a bug or an issue in front of screen. Then I realised the cold boot problem again which I almost forgot meanwhile or considered closed from 2.6.26_rcX over 2.6.26 to 2.6.27_rcX.
