http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13086 Summary: pata_via can't initialize 2nd HDD on VIA VX800 chipsets (problem in via_tf_load) Product: IO/Storage Version: 2.5 Kernel Version: 2.6.28.9 Platform: All OS/Version: Linux Tree: Mainline Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P1 Component: IDE AssignedTo: io_ide@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx ReportedBy: chris@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Regression: No I'm using Ubuntu 9.04 Server beta (Kernel 2.6.28.9) on a VIA ARTiGO A2000 barebone system (VIA C7-D, VX800 chipset, see http://www.via.com.tw/en/products/embedded/artigo/a2000). My boot device is a CF-card connected to the 1st (and only) PATA port. On the 1st SATA port I've attached a hdd which is working fine with acceptable performance. Now I've tried to connect another hdd to the 2nd SATA port ... without success. It seems that the pata_via module can't initialize the 2nd (SATA) hdd: [ 3.142195] pata_via 0000:00:0f.0: version 0.3.3 [ 3.142461] scsi0 : pata_via [ 3.142661] scsi1 : pata_via [ 3.146248] ata1: PATA max UDMA/133 cmd 0x1f0 ctl 0x3f6 bmdma 0xfc00 irq 14 [ 3.146255] ata2: PATA max UDMA/133 cmd 0x170 ctl 0x376 bmdma 0xfc08 irq 15 [ 3.316571] ata1.00: ATA-8: WDC WD10EACS-00D6B1, 01.01A01, max UDMA/133 [ 3.316578] ata1.00: 1953525168 sectors, multi 16: LBA48 NCQ (depth 0/32) [ 3.316751] ata1.01: ATA-8: SAMSUNG HD501LJ, CR100-11, max UDMA7 [ 3.316757] ata1.01: 976773168 sectors, multi 16: LBA48 NCQ (depth 0/32) [ 3.324580] ata1.00: configured for UDMA/133 [ 3.340339] ata1.01: failed to set xfermode (err_mask=0x1) [ 8.496854] ata1.00: configured for UDMA/133 [ 8.512338] ata1.01: failed to set xfermode (err_mask=0x1) [ 8.512397] ata1.01: limiting speed to UDMA/133:PIO3 [ 13.637110] ata1.00: configured for UDMA/133 [ 13.652338] ata1.01: failed to set xfermode (err_mask=0x1) [ 13.652393] ata1.01: disabled [ 13.661144] ata1.00: configured for UDMA/133 [ 13.816526] ata2.00: CFA: SanDisk SDCFX3-004G, HDX 4.32, max UDMA/66 [ 13.816533] ata2.00: 8027712 sectors, multi 0: LBA [ 13.817033] ata2.00: configured for UDMA/66 When I switch the two drives, the problem also switches. I was able to track down the problem to the via_tf_load function in pata_via.c and found a proposed patch in http://markmail.org/message/bildjl47nchykx3i After applying the patch, everything seems to work as expected.
