I suspect we're missing some info from this specific failure.
Looking back at Chris's earlier posting, the whole thing started
with a FLUSH_CACHE_EXT failure.  Once that happens, all bets are
off on anything that follows.

Everything will be running fine when suddenly:

 ata1.00: exception Emask 0x0 SAct 0x0 SErr 0x0 action 0x6 frozen
 ata1.00: cmd ea/00:00:00:00:00/00:00:00:00:00/a0 tag 0
         res 40/00:00:80:17:91/00:00:37:00:00/40 Emask 0x4 (timeout)

Hi Mark. Yes, when the first timeout after a clean boot happens, it's with
an 0xea flush command every time:
..

Yes.  Is this still happening from time to time now?
If so, disable the smartmontools daemon (smartd) and see if the problem goes away.
And especially disable hddtemp (which issues SMART commands) if that is also around.

It would be good to discover if those are the triggers for what's happening here.

Tejun.. do we do a FLUSH CACHE before issuing a non-NCQ command ?
If not, then I think we may need to add code to do it.


Cheers
