Hi,
I have a Samsung SH-W163A SATA CD/DVDRW connected to jmicron
20360/20363 onboard sata controller, running kernel 2.6.18 with sr_mod
loaded I can mount recorded/original disks and read them, but if I try
to burn a cd or dvd using cdrecord, and somtimes when mounting media I
get loads of errors in dmesg and the burn fails:
ata2.00: speed down requested but no transfer mode left
ata2.00: exception Emask 0x0 SAct 0x0 SErr 0x0 action 0x2 frozen
ata2.00: (irq_stat 0x48000000, interface fatal error)
ata2.00: tag 0 cmd 0xa0 Emask 0x50 stat 0x51 err 0x30 (ATA bus error)
ata2: soft resetting port

It looks like the interface is trying to run at 1.5Gbps which is
obviously too fast for this drive, is there any way to set the
interface speed ? I have a WD Raptor on the other sata port of the
jmicron and that works perfectly (as long as NCQ is disabled - drive
firmware bug).
What is the status of sata cd/dvdrw support? It is getting hard to buy
machines with IDE writers, most of our workstations are dell and have
only sata devices, we have similar problems with those.

No, with SATA the only two choices available today are 1.5gb/s and 3.0gb/s.
The speed-down fault-recovery logic in libata is kinda bogus for genuine SATA.
Something else must be wrong in your situation.

I have checked everything I can think of:
tested that particular interface with two different hard drives
tried new sata cable
tested drive in windows
checked for updated drive firmware
tried different media
I cannot find anything wrong.

I've done some more testing, I do not get the errors above when
reading a cd or dvd, only when I try to record using cdrecord (or
other apps) using ATAPI, here is some info from cdrecord:
cdrecord dev=ATAPI:0,0,0 -checkdrive

Are these codes: Emask 0x0 SAct 0x0 SErr 0x0 action 0x2 frozen , from
the kernel? or from the sata chip? if they are from the chip does
anybody know where I might find datasheets for JMicron 20360/20363
AHCI Controller (rev 02) ? perhaps I might find a clue there..
Read speeds seem ok, 15MB/sec from a original dvd.

Not having any SATA CD burners, I can only go by my experience using USB
and Firewire burners, which also appear to be SCSI. They work fine using
the device name rather than playing with the ATA or ATAPI stuff. And if
you're using ProDVD I suggest you download the latest cdrecord from the
usual site and build that, DVD support is now in the cdrecord source, as
it is in most distributions.
I use multiple PATA and USB burners on several systems, and haven't had
problems. I actually do have SCSI devices, they have always worked and
continue to (slowly) do so.
If you post again after trying the current source, please include the
command used as well as the output from the log. By using the latest you
at least MIGHT get some help from the author, instead of the usual
"don't bother me with obsolete versions" reply.

Obscure bug of 2004: BASH BUFFER OVERFLOW - if bash is being run by a
normal user and is setuid root, with the "vi" line edit mode selected,
and the character set is "big5," an off-by-one errors occurs during
wildcard (glob) expansion.
