Hi,
I've tested with 2.6.21.1 with the following patches (which applied
cleanly):
http://user.it.uu.se/~mikpe/linux/patches/2.6/patch-sata_promise-1-separate-sata-pata-ops-2.6.21
http://user.it.uu.se/~mikpe/linux/patches/2.6/patch-sata_promise-2-error_intr-2.6.21
http://user.it.uu.se/~mikpe/linux/patches/2.6/patch-sata_promise-3-sataii-tx4-port-numbering-fix-2.6.21
dmesg reports version 2.00 (you mentioned version 2.07?):
[ 42.091593] sata_promise 0000:01:08.0: version 2.00
[ 42.091852] ACPI: PCI Interrupt Link [LNK3] enabled at IRQ 11

[ 42.092028] sata_promise: applying SATAII-150/300 TX4 port numbering
workaround
The problem is still there. I'm doing:
dd if=/dev/sda of=/dev/null bs=1M &
dd if=/dev/sdb of=/dev/null bs=1M &
dd if=/dev/sdc of=/dev/null bs=1M &
dd if=/dev/sdd of=/dev/null bs=1M &
Then I used smartctl a number of times:
(for each in /dev/sd[abcd]; do smartctl -a -d ata $each ; sleep 5; done)
| grep -i "ATA Error Count"
This _sometimes_ produces the following in dmesg:
[ 1090.412643] ata1.00: exception Emask 0x0 SAct 0x0 SErr 0x0 action 0x0
[ 1090.412801] ata1.00: (port_status 0x00001000)

But the dds continues afterwards (which is nice).
Then eventually one port gave up and didn't recover:

I would like to help by testing the most recent version of the
sata_promise driver on my
Promise Technology, Inc. PDC40718 (SATA 300 TX4) (rev 02)
with 4 Seagate 500GB ES drives:
Model Number: ST3500630NS
Firmware Revision: 3.AEE
(with 1.5/3.0Gbps jumper removed = 3.0Gbps)
This setup experienced a problem a while ago which was fixed using
2.6.21-rc2 + Mikael Petterssons "force 1.5Gbps patch".
Could someone provide a hint on what sources/patches I should get?
E.g. vanilla 2.6.21.1 + ?
For a SATA 300 TX4 you should test version 2.07 of sata_promise.c.
You can get it in 2.6.21-git16, or 2.6.21-mm2 plus the following
two patches:
http://user.it.uu.se/~mikpe/linux/patches/2.6/patch-sata_promise-1-error_intr-abort_port-2.6.21-mm2
http://user.it.uu.se/~mikpe/linux/patches/2.6/patch-sata_promise-2-sataii-tx4-port-numbering-fix-2.6.21-mm2
or 2.6.21 plus the following three patches:
http://user.it.uu.se/~mikpe/linux/patches/2.6/patch-sata_promise-1-separate-sata-pata-ops-2.6.21
http://user.it.uu.se/~mikpe/linux/patches/2.6/patch-sata_promise-2-error_intr-2.6.21
http://user.it.uu.se/~mikpe/linux/patches/2.6/patch-sata_promise-3-sataii-tx4-port-numbering-fix-2.6.21
Note that this corrects the longstanding mis-enumeration
of ports on SATAII TX4 cards, so you may need to adjust
your /etc/fstab and boot-time root= parameter if you're
using hard-coded partition names.
