That's rather curious. It seems to be saying that the sg length is
different between the map and unmap, but it doesn't look like sata_nv
mucks with that anywhere, and neither does libata core..
Could the SCSI code have merged two requests?
I wouldn't think so.. and if it did it seems like it would have to have
changed the list after libata got the request somehow..
Does this box uses GART IOMMU?
I don't think so, but I've asked for the dmesg.
Okay, it _is_ using GART IOMMU:
DMA-API: preallocated 8192 debug entries
DMA-API: debugging enabled by kernel config
PCI-DMA: Disabling AGP.
PCI-DMA: aperture base @ 20000000 size 65536 KB
PCI-DMA: using GART IOMMU.
PCI-DMA: Reserving 64MB of IOMMU area in the AGP aperture
Thanks, that makes sense.
I think that the following patch could fix this:
http://marc.info/?l=linux-ide&m=123484533504307&w=2
The patch looks reasonable to me. I'm CCing the reporter of the bug.
Wes, would you be able to test out Fujita's patch linked above?
