Subject: 2.6.16-rc3 - sata_mv - Assertion failed!

Hi Jeff and others,

I get some error messages while using a raid5 over nine Maxtor 500GB
disks.

The first three disks are connected to the onboard nForce4, and six to a
MV88SX6081 8-port SATA II PCI-X Controller (rev 09)

I made a 25GB partition on each disk, and create raid5 over them:

mdadm -C -l5 -n9 /dev/md1 /dev/sda2 /dev/sdb2 /dev/sdc2 \
/dev/sdd2 /dev/sde2 /dev/sdf2 /dev/sdg2 /dev/sdh2 /dev/sdi2

When the recovery is finished, I create an ext3 filesystem, and mount
it:

mke2fs -j -m1 /dev/md1
mount -o data=writeback /dev/md1 /mnt

Then I execute the following:

for i in `seq 10`
do dd if=/dev/zero of=bigfile.$i bs=1024k count=10000
done
md5sum bigfile.*
rm bigfile.*

This time, the system was building another raid5 on other partitions at
the same time, generating some extra load. The system spits out error
messages (via netconsole), and responds _very_ slow on disks activity.

I rebuilded 2.6.16-rc3 with ATA_DEBUG and ATA_VERBOSE_DEBUG defined, but
that kernel hangs when I try to create the raid5. I'll try again with
only ATA_DEBUG enabled.

I'll also have a look at the firmware version in the Marvell controller,
and upgrade it if it is not the latest.

Any more I can do? More info I can provide? Is this due to the sata_mv
driver being beta? If so, I love to test any patches. All disks passed
badblocks in write mode, fwiw.

Sander

50/01 is the reset signature FIS. Is it possible that under load you
aren't supplying enough power to the drives, your 5V or 12V droops too
much, and the voltage protection circuitry on the drive causes it to
power cycle?

Hi Eric, thank you for your thoughts.

Good you mention this, but I doubt it for several reasons.

The nine disks are used in a chassis which can hold 26 disks, and the
chassis comes with a 950W PSU.

Right now the system uses 1.4A, which is 322W. I know one needs enough
juice on the 5V and 12V, and thus cannot simple state that if a PSU has
a high rating, it can cope with the load. But it only has nine out of 26
possible disks.

The system has 4GB ram and two Opteron 244 cpu's. So that doesn't cause
much power load either (compared to 16GB ram and two Opteron 280 cpu's,
which is also should be able to handle).

The disks run fine when connected to a Promise SX8 (albeit _very_ slow).

I also connected the nine disk to the onboard nVidia, the SX8 and the
Marvell, each sporting three disks. The errors always and only come from
sata_mv.

So I guess that the beta driver is indeed beta :-)

I'll just wait for someone with more skills than me to have a look at
the driver, and test any patches which result from that. I have a second
system which can be used for that. The one we're talking about is in
production right now.
