Hmm, that's indeed interesting and it'd point to a driver problem - when reading, the drive is dictating the timing, but when writing, it's the controllers turn. So if the controller timing is not correctly programmed, reads function, but writes don't. Can you send me the output of 'lspci -vvxxx' of the IDE device? I'll take a look to see if it looks correct. > It appears to me that during heavy IO load, some DMA interrupts get > lost, for some reason. Well, I've got this feeling that not just IDE interrupts get lost under heavy IO load with recent kernels ... -- Vojtech Pavlik SuSE Labs, SuSE CR - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
