Hello all...
I've got an Abit NF7-S v2.0 mainboard with an Athlon XP 2000+ CPU.
Yesterday I've compiled the 2.6.0-test9 kernel with -mm1 patch. My
system is on the first sata device (/dev/hde).
After reboot I've noticed an Oops after setting dma and other settings
with hdparm. Without -mm1 patch the machine works well.
After the oops I've tried to find what the problem was.
hdparm -c1 /dev/hde -> nothing was happened, switched off...
hdparm -d1 /dev/hde -> Oops...
I've got this messages:
hde: DMA timeout retry status error: status=0x58 { DriveReady
SeekComplete DataRequest }
ide2: reset phy, status=0x00000113 siimage_reset
.
.
.
Buffer I/O error on device hde2, logical block 97865
lost page write due to I/O error on hde2
.
.
.
EXT3-fs error (device hde2) in start_transaction: Journal has aborted
The rootfs is /dev/hde2.
Please cc the answers to my address, because I'm not lkml member...
Thanks:

Strange enough I have an Abit NF7-s Rev2.0 as well, but for me the
driver works - somehow. I havbe latest bios 1.9 (modified with latest
silicon image bios). Since siimage 1.06 drvier. I have DMA without using
hdparm, but it is not as fast as in windows. With kernel 2.6 tranfer
dropped very much to about 20mb/s (playing with read-aheed didn't help).
But I am getting this error messages in dmesg and at boot up (that's why
I commented it out in siimage.c):
hde: sata_error = 0x00000000, watchdog = 0, siimage_mmio_ide_dma_test_irq
Other than that it runs fine - forgetting that performance it bad right
now. Tried various shedulers, but didn't help. With kernel 2.4.22-ac4 I
had about 37mb/sec, now only 20mb/sec...

I haven't problem with the speed. I'd like to set up DMA to the disk and
the -d switch (using_dma) causes the panic. With vanilla 2.6.0-test9
everything works fine, no speed problem. But if I boot up with -mm1, I
have to work without DMA on hde. And another interesting thing: hdparm
-d1 /dev/hdd works fine, so the problem is somewhere in the siimage
driver. I don't know exactly what changed, but something has been
corrupted around the driver.
