Hello,
I have the following problem with my controller:
I have attached a 8 GB UDMA4 Harddisk, but it works only with UDMA2. The controller BIOS displays the right mode (4), but in the kernel dmesg it comes with pio. after i execute hdparm -I /dev/hde it says:
... udma2* udma3 udma4
If I try to force the UDMA4 mode with hdparm -Xudma4 /dev/hde , ... theres no difference. The harddisk leaves at udma2.
What can I do?
I have tried 2.4.26, 2.6.9, 2.6.10-rc1...
Can you help me?
Thanx, EnricoB

Hrmm, I have never seen that syntax, have you tried
hdparm -X68 /dev/hde (udma 4)
Or
hdparm -X69 /dev/hde (udma 5)
What type of disk are you using?
root@p500:~# hdparm -X69 /dev/hde
/dev/hde:
setting xfermode to 69 (UltraDMA mode5)
root@p500:~# hdparm -X68 /dev/hde
/dev/hde:
setting xfermode to 68 (UltraDMA mode4)
root@p500:~# hdparm -X67 /dev/hde
/dev/hde:
setting xfermode to 67 (UltraDMA mode3)
root@p500:~# hdparm -X69 /dev/hde

After you try to set it with -X68 (udma4) check the udma setting, if it
has not changed, type 'dmesg' and check for any error messages and post
them back to the list.
I also use the same card and have not had these problems; however, the
smallest drive I use is 40GB.

The dmesg after hdparm command is
--snip--
hde: set_drive_speed_status: status=0x58 { DriveReady SeekComplete DataRequest }ide: failed opcode was 100
hde: dma_intr: status=0x58 { DriveReady SeekComplete DataRequest }
ide: failed opcode was: unknown
hde: CHECK for good STATUS
--snap--
What does that mean?

Maybe someone can step in if I am wrong, but I believe the drive cannot
use that mode.
There could also be multi-mode/issues.
Try hdparm -c3 -d1 -u1 -X68 /dev/hde
If that does not work, I am not sure if the drive will support that
mode.
For reference, I have a 61.4GB (MAXTOR) on a promise card, and it uses
the following mode in use:
Capabilities:
LBA, IORDY(can be disabled)
bytes avail on r/w long: 57 Queue depth: 1
Standby timer values: spec'd by Standard, no device specific
minimum
R/W multiple sector transfer: Max = 16 Current = 0
Advanced power management level: unknown setting (0x0000)
Recommended acoustic management value: 192, current value: 254
DMA: mdma0 mdma1 mdma2 udma0 udma1 udma2 udma3 *udma4
Cycle time: min=120ns recommended=120ns
PIO: pio0 pio1 pio2 pio3 pio4
Cycle time: no flow control=120ns IORDY flow control=120ns
And a 40GB:
Capabilities:
LBA, IORDY(can be disabled)
bytes avail on r/w long: 40 Queue depth: 32
Standby timer values: spec'd by Standard, no device specific
minimum
R/W multiple sector transfer: Max = 16 Current = 16
Advanced power management level: unknown setting (0x0000)
Recommended acoustic management value: 128, current value: 254
DMA: mdma0 mdma1 mdma2 udma0 udma1 udma2 udma3 *udma4
Cycle time: min=120ns recommended=120ns
PIO: pio0 pio1 pio2 pio3 pio4
Cycle time: no flow control=240ns IORDY flow control=120ns
My guess is either:
1) The drive does not support it.
2) There is a multi-mode issue with DMA/the disk.
See the following kernel option:
Device Drivers --->
ATA/ATAPI/MFM/RLL support --->
<*> Include IDE/ATA-2 DISK support
[*] Use multi-mode by default
The help states:
Use multi-mode by default
If you get this error, try to say Y here:
hda: set_multmode: status=0x51 { DriveReady SeekComplete Error }
hda: set_multmode: error=0x04 { DriveStatusError }
If in doubt, say N.
I normally say Y here.

Odd, what speed did you get with UDMA2? UDMA3?
Any errors in dmesg other then the ones you pasted?
Also, when benchmarking with hdparm (as it states in the man page, it is
good to run it 3 times for each run and take the average) as it can vary
sometimes.
I have also noticed if you are running hdparm -t /dev/hde when running
X, window manager, etc, I get 8-10MB/s less vs. when I run it in single
user mode.

In the catalog there is described that the drive can use UDMA66 Mode
