Basically, trying to use the pata_hpt37x driver on an Rocket133 card (HPT302 Rev 1 chip) fails with a bunch of errors shown below. This is a PCI add-on card with /home and /local filesystems on there, mirrored across a pair of 120gb WD drives. The system also has a pair of builtin SCSI controllers (AIC7xxx) which hold the OS filesystems, as well as a tape drive for backups. It's an SMP system. I guess I should try to boot it up UP and see how it goes then as well. I've tried booting 2.6.18-rc4-mm3 with the irqpoll option, but it didn't make a difference. Do you need more details? irq 18: nobody cared (try booting with the "irqpoll" option) [<c0104061>] dump_trace+0x1e1/0x210 [<c01040aa>] show_trace_log_lvl+0x1a/0x30 [<c0104832>] show_trace+0x12/0x20 [<c01049a9>] dump_stack+0x19/0x20 [<c01406d7>] __report_bad_irq+0x27/0x90 [<c0140966>] note_interrupt+0x226/0x260 [<c0141221>] handle_fasteoi_irq+0xc1/0xd0 [<c0105b38>] do_IRQ+0x88/0xf0 [<c01039ee>] common_interrupt+0x1a/0x20 [<c0101be4>] default_idle+0x34/0x70 [<c0101c8c>] cpu_idle+0x6c/0x90 [<c0100725>] rest_init+0x25/0x30 [<c0565839>] start_kernel+0x2f9/0x400 ======================= handlers: [<c03004c0>] (ahc_linux_isr+0x0/0x60) [<c03004c0>] (ahc_linux_isr+0x0/0x60) [<c03155c0>] (ata_interrupt+0x0/0x1a0) Disabling IRQ #18 ata2.00: exception Emask 0x0 SAct 0x0 SErr 0x0 action 0x2 frozen ata2.00: (BMDMA stat 0x4) ata2.00: tag 0 cmd 0xca Emask 0x4 stat 0x40 err 0x0 (timeout) ata2: soft resetting port ata2.00: qc timeout (cmd 0xec) ata2.00: failed to IDENTIFY (I/O error, err_mask=0x4) ata2.00: revalidation failed (errno=-5) ata2: failed to recover some devices, retrying in 5 secs ata2: soft resetting port ata2.00: qc timeout (cmd 0xec) ata2.00: failed to IDENTIFY (I/O error, err_mask=0x4) ata2.00: revalidation failed (errno=-5) ata2: failed to recover some devices, retrying in 5 secs ata2: soft resetting port ata2.00: qc timeout (cmd 0xec) ata2.00: failed to IDENTIFY (I/O error, err_mask=0x4) ata2.00: revalidation failed (errno=-5) ata2.00: disabled ata2: EH complete sd 3:0:0:0: SCSI error: return code = 0x00040000 end_request: I/O error, dev sdd, sector 234436423 raid1: Disk failure on sdd1, disabling device.
