Subject: Kernel Panics on IDE Initialization

All,

On two seperate motherboards that I have been testing, the ABIT
KR7A-RAID and the SOYO FIRE DRAGON, 2.4 kernels panic on boot up during
IDE initialization. I don't really know how to track down the problem but
now that I've seen it on two boards I'm a bit worried. This does not
happen with 2.2 kernels so it is 2.4 specific. I have tested with 2.4.17
and 2.4.18 pre releases. I will try to field any questions to solve the
problem. Please CC me directly on any correspondence as I am not
currently subscribed to this list.

Thanks,
Kris Kersey (Augustus)

Try 2.4.18 proper and 2.4.18-ac2 - we fixed at least one oops caused by
controllers and mishandling of new revisions not in our tables. If it
still fails send me the pci data for them

Still panics at initialization. I have attached the /proc/pci and lspci
output. This is for the SOYO board. I will see about getting the ABIT
board information.

No, that only allows it to be reported.
It does not nothing until is is indexed in the Host core.
But you know that, it is obvious.

I have word that it's the HighPoint controller's fault. I will verify

Oh I already have the skinny and working on it.
I still have the touch!

Also I have a sponsor for the 374 code so now to find somebody for the 372
and the variations it shows up in :-/

Cheers,

I have verified that it is indeed the HighPoint IDE that it's getting hung
up on. I simply disabled it in the BIOS and it booted just fine. Any
ideas on a fix though would still be appreciated. I will test this out on
the ABIT board also since it has a HighPoint on board also.

thanks,
Kris

I have many reports the HPT RAID controllers cause kernels (RH 7.3
install) to crash, unfortunately because the VIA IDE spits an unrelated
warning message on many of the affected mainboards just before the HPT
code crashes ...

Well, this patch fixes two possible array overflows in the HPT code.
There is quite likely a lot more of stuff to fix.

Just wanted to let everyone know that the problem with the HighPoint
controller on the SOYO Dragon has been fixed with the latest 2.4.19 pre
patches.

Thanks,
