Hi,

I get lots of errors like this with 2.6.27-rc1 on my
Macbook Pro (3rd generation), 2.6.26 seems to work fine:

Any suggestions?
You can try increasing the swiotlb size by booting with swiotlb=65536 (for 128MB) or swiotlb=131072 (for 256MB), and see if that makes the problem go away.. It's unclear why you'd be running out of SWIOTLB space now, though, if 2.6.26 worked fine..
Still happening, although 256M make it a bit harder to trigger.

Hmm... sounds like mapping is leaking.  Eh... iommu leak debug seems to
support only AMD GART IOMMU.  How long does it take to reproduce the
bug?  Once it happens, it never recovers, right?  Does the problem
happen with minimal configuration w/ only libata enabled (no network, no
sound, no usb...)?

Yes, that would be a good test.. Easiest way might be booting with init=/bin/sh and running some processes that do lots of disk access..
