Hi Guys, I ran 2.6.18-rc2 with libata patch. I have seen many occurrences of EH traces in dmesg log as show below: ... [30540.003174] ata1: exception Emask 0x10 SAct 0x0 SErr 0x80000 action 0x2 frozen [30540.003259] ata1: (irq_stat 0x01100010, PHY RDY changed) [30540.548784] ata1: waiting for device to spin up (8 secs) [30548.721383] ata1: soft resetting port [30548.822362] ata1: SATA link up 1.5 Gbps (SStatus 113 SControl 300) [30548.825201] ata1.00: configured for UDMA/100 [30548.825248] ata1: EH complete [repeats]... While at the same time, my testing still proceeded without problem. Are these genuine errors or false alarms?
Do you happen to be using sata_sil on ATI controller? If so, those chipsets don't support hotplug && please use -rc4. If you're using something else, please report what chipset you're using.
