Tejun: thanks for the CC. I'm clueless about what is at fault here.
Eamonn: could you please build the latest version of smartmontools from
CVS HEAD source and see if the problem exists in that version? Then write
back. I don't think this will help but want to eliminate obvious things.
Cheers,
Bruce

Thanks for that, I checked the disks and sure enough they were in an
extended self test, I aborted that and it's all back to normal.
the only problem, however, is that the system is already running version
5.37 of the smartmontools package, which is the most recent as I
understand it? I don't really want to leave the system with it's disks
unmonitored, is there anything I can be doing to prevent this behaviour?
Hmmm... That gotta be a different issue then. Cc'ing Bruce and quoting
the original report.

Hi,
I'm looking ta a Dell SC440 system for a friend, and it's giving HSM
violations at startup.
The system itself has an ICH7 chipset, with two seagate ST3160812AS
drives attached along with a single ST3400832AS, running kernel 2.6.22
and the ata_piix driver.
I'm guessing this isn't good :(
Anybody gt any suggestions?
The violations are :
ata1.00: exception Emask 0x0 SAct 0x0 SErr 0x0 action 0x2 frozen
ata1.00: cmd b0/d2:f1:00:4f:c2/00:00:00:00:00/00 tag 0 cdb 0x0 data
