Since you have verified that serialization is not needed we should get rid of it while we are at it (it negatively affects performance of simultaneous operations on both ports of the controller). > I do still get the "bad DMA info in identify block" error for the CD > drive, so that's still a regression relative to 2.6.26: > hdd: host max PIO5 wanted PIO255(auto-tune) selected PIO4 > -hdd: MWDMA2 mode selected > +hdd: bad DMA info in identify block > +hdd: host max PIO5 wanted PIO255(auto-tune) selected PIO4 I begin to wonder whether this problem could be the one responsible for generating the spurious IRQ that we are seeing on the second port (I think that this is _very_ likely).. I promised to look into it but I still need a identify block content to tell more (you can add #define DEBUG to the ide-probe.c so we will get id before and after changing of transfer mode settings): --- drivers/ide/ide-probe.c | 2 ++ 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+) Index: b/drivers/ide/ide-probe.c =================================================================== --- a/drivers/ide/ide-probe.c +++ b/drivers/ide/ide-probe.c @@ -39,6 +39,8 @@ #include <asm/uaccess.h> #include <asm/io.h> +#define DEBUG + /** * generic_id - add a generic drive id * @drive: drive to make an ID block for -- 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
