Hello,

I'm using an Asus P5W DH motherboard, with an Intel ICH7 controler, and a
Jmicron JMB363.

On the Intel, I've connected an IDE HDD and a CD-RW, no problem.
On the SATA side, i've connected 3 SATA disks, but at boot time, the kernel
detects 4 ports, and goes on timeout on ata2 :

...
ahci 0000:00:1f.2: AHCI 0001.0100 32 slots 4 ports 3 Gbps 0xf impl SATA mode
ahci 0000:00:1f.2: flags: 64bit ncq led clo pio slum part

ata3: SATA link up 1.5 Gbps (SStatus 113 SControl 300)

ata3.00: ata3: dev 0 multi count 0
ata3.00: configured for UDMA/133
...

Is there a way to exclude ata2 from probing ? Nothing is connected, and there
is no associated port on the motherboard...

The second problem is the Jmicron controler. It can act as IDE, SATA, ...
but I've configured it as IDE in the BIOS, and connected a DRD-RW on.
Problem is that IDE driver detects it, as containing ide2 and ide3, and
when probing for the DVD, I've got a lot of timeout on the command.
... But, I'm lost in all the JMICRON configuration possibilities in the
kernel :
- it is detected by the IDE driver,
- it can be activated in ATA/ATAPI/MFM/RLL
- it can be activated in Serial ATA (prod) and Parallel ATA (experimental)

What should I select ?

Paul

and then the machine is locked, no keyboard, but the DVD-ROM is correctly

indicates.

If I remove Jmicron support from the kernel, I have ICH7 in ATA/ATAPI/...
and AHCI in Serial ATA, and the boot process is nearly fine, except the
ata2 timeout, that I can't prevent even with ata2=noprobe in the command line
:

The specification summary of the board says :
Intel ICH7R Southbridge supports
- 1 x Ultra DMA 100/66/33
- 3 x Serial ATA 3.0 Gb/s devices, with raid 0, 1, 5
- Intel Matrix Storage
Jmicron JMB363 Serial Ata controller supports :
- 1 x External Sata 3.0 Gb/s (SATA-on-the-Go)
- 1 x Internel Sata 3.0 Gb/s
- 1 x Internel DMA 100/66/33 connector for two devices

There is something connected, I believe what's actually there on this
board on that port is the SiI4723 chip which is connected to two other
SATA ports. For whatever reason it gets detected as a drive, and it also
seems to be not responding until we do a few resets..

My advice on recent kernels is just set CONFIG_IDE=n and enable
PATA_JMICRON if you want JMicron support, unless you really want to use
the crusty old IDE layer..

That's correct, there is this controller, used by Asus for their EZ-Backup
feature. But I'm not using it, there is no disk connected on the associated
ports, and it's disabled in the BIOS.

No real preferences... except for a working machine, which is not what
I have for now...

I've been trying this, but I ended with the ICH7 not detecting anymore
my IDE disks...
Should try again, maybe I missed something.

Paul

Robert, based on what you wrote, I have a few questions :
- Should I activate CONFIG_SATA_SIL and/or CONFIG_SATA_SIL24 for the
ata2 timeout,
- If I set CONFIG_IDE=n, this will remove support for :
. Floppy,
. Scsi -> USB keys.
or am I missing something ?

You have the old driver 0n 0x1F0

And the new drivers trying to manage the same port

Set those to "N" and try again

Done that, rebuilt and rebooted...
/dev/hda and /dev/hdb (old driver) are gone...
OK, rebooting again, with a new root device as /dev/sde1...
No problem for the old IDE devices, they are now /dev/sdX.

But the Jmicron stuff is still broken though no more conflict :(

What's this ? Is it really bad or just a warning ???

Thanks. That helps a lot as it narrows it down

This looks like the problems that hopefully the patches from Tejun and
from Mark Lord cured (the delay after reset and the task file clear)

It's one Tejun stuck logging in for in order to investigate further.

Any chance I can find this patch(es) and try them ?

OK, will wait a little bit ;)

In the meantime, I've been trying 2.6.20-rc7.
Things are not better, except that the ata2 probing failing results in
no /dev/sdd being allocated, thus it changes all the naming afterwards.

So, 2.6.20-rc7 results are :
- ata2 probing still very long and delaying boot a lot,
- Jmicron PATA still not working, and doesn't even detect the DVD-ROM on
the port.

Guys, should you have any patch that you'd like me to test, feel free to
send, I'll do that more than happily.

You have a Maxtor connected to that port, right? That's caused by
firmware bug. Future kernels will consider that condition as protocol
violation and blacklist the drive such that NCQ is not used on it. I
think it can be dangerous on rare corner/error cases but there hasn't
been any actual report of problems caused by that, so no need to worry
about it too much. If it bothers you, you can turn NCQ off using sysfs
node. Take a look at FAQ section of http://linux-ata.org

Slightly OT, but it's generally a good idea to use LABELs to access
filesystems. With so many ports and EH dynamics including hotplug, it's
much more difficult to keep device names persistent and remember them.

That's sil4726's config device acting weird. When reset as a normal
device (not PMP device), sil4726 acts as a normal ATA device which is
used to configure how the chip behaves. Unfortunately, the emulation
seems to contain some flaws and cause lots of delays as you've seen.
I'm attaching a patch to clear TF before IDENTIFY which fixes similar
IDENTIFY failures on buggy ATAPI devices.

This problem is likely to be fixed by clearing TF before IDENTIFY.

So, please test the attached patch and report the result.

Hello Tejun,

Waoh, you are using crystal ball ? :) You are right, this is a Maxtor
disk, 250 MB. If you want more details about this disk, I can send you
a complete details.

I'm just slightly worried about that, and because all this libata
stuff is quite "new", I prefer to report everything I can see, considering
that I can test patches on this machine if people need me to do so.
So, consider this machine as some kind of playground if you have
some code you want someone to test.

Yes, that's what I should do, but I've never really like that stuff ;(

OK, will try this tonite (I'm sorry, this is my home comp., and I'm at the
office right now - will tell you tomorrow).

Will do, and will test more if you more that are to be tested !

BTW, maybe OT, but what about setting a list of people willing to test
patches together with their configurations so that they can be send
patches related to their hardware ? That could be useful to people developing
drivers...

You can ignore the above. The errors on ata2 are due to SIMG storage
processor and will probably fixed when PMP support is implemented. The
latter errors on pata_jmicron is probably due to lack of proper mode
programming on that driver. I'll look into that.

Thanks.

At the risk of sounding like a "me too" post:

I also have an Asus P5W-DH, with the following drives connected:

SATA: ST3250820AS, connected to sata1
PATA: HL-DT-ST GSA-H12N, ATAPI DVD Writer, Primary master

On bootup of 2.6.19 and 2.6.20, the kernel stalls for 1 minute when probing sata2,
eventually giving up and continuing the boot process. There is no physical sata2
connector on the Motherboard, just solder lugs between sata1 and sata3. From other users
I understand this is really a Silicon Image SIL4723 SATA to 2-Port SATA splitter. It is
detected by the kernel as a disk, as below.

The relevant part of the boot process looks like:
...

ata3: SATA link down (SStatus 0 SControl 300)
...

A bit of poking about shows:

fdisk -l /dev/sdb
Disk /dev/sdb: 0 MB, 327680 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 0 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes
Disk /dev/sdb doesn't contain a valid partition table

So it presents itself as a 320k disk, filled with zeroes as below:

dd if=/dev/sdb |hexdump
0000000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000
*
0050000

640+0 records in
640+0 records out
327680 bytes (328 kB) copied, 0.0106662 seconds, 30.7 MB/s

Note that this is not a fatal error. The machine still boots eventually, but the
seemingly mandatory 60 second pause makes startup rather cumbersome for the user.

So far none of the suggested fixes have managed to stop ata2 from being detected.
(noprobe=ata2, irqpoll, etc). I understand this problem wasn't present in 2.6.16 so the
problem must lie in some patch since then. I see Tejun is working towards patches for
this and I would be happy to try them here.

thanks,
Greg

Is this 320k of cache memory, or in any way some actual storage on the
system? Have you tried to write to it out of curiosity? Seems odd that
it would be detected if there were nothing at all present, although
obviously it could be artifact.

According to the product outline at
http://www.siliconimage.com/products/product.aspx?id=64, the Silicon Image port multiplier
has an EEPROM of unspecified size.

With the drive appearing as precisely 320K I wouldn't be surprised if this EEPROM is what
it was seeing. Even though it's currently filled with zeros I dare not write to it
through fear of bricking the controller.
