Here is an incomplete attempt to get the sata_nv ADMA code working. I made another pass through my merge of the sata_nv driver to fix and clean up a few things. I've only made the minimal changes necessary to get it into a testable state; methinks it could do with a lot of refactoring and cleanup, instead of all the "if (host->...host_type == ADMA)" tests.
Did you ever figure this out? It looks like you're mixing two completely seperate bugs. The ata timeouts and the lost ticks messages.
BIOS Information Vendor: Phoenix Technologies Ltd. Version: 2004Q3 Release Date: 10/12/2005
This is causing the sata failures: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=190856 Downgrade to match your other system (version 1.01). That will fix the ata timeouts at least. I'm still interested in the lost ticks messages though... regards, dan carpenter - : send the line "unsubscribe linux-ide" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
