It means that controller is reporting that NCQ command tags which are not issued (or already completed) are in-flight. Due to the way hdd reports NCQ command completion, it's not possible for the drive to cause this. This gotta be a bug on the host side (be it controller chip or more likely the driver). The command tag in question is 5. Only 0, 3 and 4 were in flight. > Mar 8 03:19:33 [kernel] ata8: illegal qc_active transition (000000ff->000001f7) The same but problematic tag is 8. > Mar 14 23:51:43 [kernel] ata3: illegal qc_active transition (0000001b->0000002b) Ditto but with tag 5. > Mar 14 23:51:55 [kernel] ata3: failed to read log page 10h (errno=-2) > Mar 14 23:51:55 [kernel] ata3.00: exception Emask 0x1 SAct 0x3f SErr 0x0 action 0x0 > Mar 14 23:51:55 [kernel] ata3.00: irq_stat 0x00020002, device error via SDB FIS This one is different. The drive reported device error but the driver couldn't get more information about the error (log page 10h contains it). What does smartctl -a on the drive say? -- tejun -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-ide" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
