I have some trouble with a Hitachi XX.V.3.7 CompactFlash connected to an VIA VT6421 Raid Controller together with kernel 2.6.17. First i had to add a patch from VIA to support PATA in sata-via.c. Now i get following error during boot : libata version 1.20 loaded. sata_via 0000:00:14.0: version 1.1 ACPI: PCI Interrupt Link [LNKB] enabled at IRQ 5 PCI: setting IRQ 5 as level-triggered ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:00:14.0[A] -> Link [LNKB] -> GSI 5 (level, low) -> IRQ 5 sata_via 0000:00:14.0: routed to hard irq line 7 ata_device_add: ENTER ata_host_add: ENTER ata_port_start: prd alloc, virt cf63e000, dma f63e000 ata1: PATA max UDMA/133 cmd 0xFD00 ctl 0xFD0A bmdma 0xF900 irq 5 ata_host_add: ENTER ata_port_start: prd alloc, virt cf626000, dma f626000 ata2: PATA max UDMA/133 cmd 0xFC00 ctl 0xFC0A bmdma 0xF908 irq 5 ata_host_add: ENTER ata_port_start: prd alloc, virt c12e9000, dma 12e9000 ata3: PATA max UDMA/133 cmd 0xFB00 ctl 0xFB0A bmdma 0xF910 irq 5 ata_device_add: probe begin ata_device_add: ata1: bus probe begin ata_bus_reset: ENTER, host 1, port 0 ata_bus_softreset: ata1: bus reset via SRST ata1: disabling port ata_bus_reset: EXIT ata_device_add: ata1: bus probe end scsi0 : sata_via ata_device_add: ata2: bus probe begin ata_bus_reset: ENTER, host 2, port 1 ata_bus_softreset: ata2: bus reset via SRST ata2: disabling port ata_bus_reset: EXIT ata_device_add: ata2: bus probe end scsi1 : sata_via ata_device_add: ata3: bus probe begin ata_bus_reset: ENTER, host 3, port 2 ata_bus_softreset: ata3: bus reset via SRST ata_dev_classify: found ATA device by sig ata_bus_reset: EXIT ata_dev_read_id: ENTER, host 3, dev 1 ata_dev_select: ENTER, ata3: device 1, wait 1 ata_dev_select: ENTER, ata3: device 1, wait 1 ata_exec_command_pio: ata3: cmd 0xEC ata_pio_sector: data read ata_dev_init_params: init dev params ata_dev_select: ENTER, ata3: device 1, wait 1 ata_tf_load_pio: feat 0x0 nsect 0x30 lba 0x0 0x0 0x0 ata_tf_load_pio: device 0xBE ata_exec_command_pio: ata3: cmd 0x91 ata_host_intr: ata3: protocol 1 (dev_stat 0x50) ata_dev_init_params: EXIT, err_mask=0 ata_dev_select: ENTER, ata3: device 1, wait 1 ata_exec_command_pio: ata3: cmd 0xEC ata_pio_sector: data read ata_dev_configure: ENTER, host 3, dev 1 ata3: dev 1 cfg 49:0200 82:7000 83:4004 84:4000 85:7000 86:0004 87:4000 88:0000 ata_dump_id: 49==0x0200 53==0x0003 63==0x0000 64==0x0003 75==0x0000 ata_dump_id: 80==0x0000 81==0x0000 82==0x7000 83==0x4004 84==0x4000 ata_dump_id: 88==0x0000 93==0x0000 ata3: dev 1 ATA-0, max PIO4, 500400 sectors: LBA ata_dev_configure: EXIT, drv_stat = 0x50 ata_dev_set_xfermode: set features - xfer mode ata_dev_select: ENTER, ata3: device 1, wait 1 ata_tf_load_pio: feat 0x3 nsect 0xC lba 0x0 0x0 0x0 ata_tf_load_pio: device 0xB0 ata_exec_command_pio: ata3: cmd 0xEF ata_host_intr: ata3: protocol 1 (dev_stat 0x51) ata_dev_set_xfermode: EXIT, err_mask=1 ata3: failed to set xfermode (err_mask=0x1) ata_device_add: ata3: bus probe end scsi2 : sata_via ata_device_add: host probe begin ata_device_add: EXIT, returning 3 What does "failed to set xfermode (err_mask=0x1)" means ? Is this a problem with the CompactFlash card or with the PATA support in sata-via ? Thank you in advance, Thomas -- "Feel free" – 10 GB Mailbox, 100 FreeSMS/Monat ...
