Hello, I'm not subscribed to this list, sorry if it's the wrong place to send this. I've been having problems with 2.6.34-rc1, when the system tries to access a lot of files (eg, if I recompile the kernel) it freezes for about 10 seconds or so and then I get a message like this in the sys.log: ata2: lost interrupt (Status 0x50) ata2.01: exception Emask 0x0 SAct 0x0 SErr 0x0 action 0x0 frozen ata2.01: failed command: WRITE DMA ata2.01: cmd ca/00:08:4c:37:6f/00:00:00:00:00/fd tag 0 dma 4096 out res 40/00:00:00:00:00/00:00:00:00:00/10 Emask 0x4 (timeout) ata2.01: status: { DRDY } ata2.00: hard resetting link ata2.01: hard resetting link ata2.00: SATA link down (SStatus 0 SControl 300) ata2.01: SATA link up 3.0 Gbps (SStatus 123 SControl 300) ata2.01: configured for UDMA/133 ata2.01: device reported invalid CHS sector 0 ata2: EH complete or this: ata2: lost interrupt (Status 0x50) ata2.01: exception Emask 0x0 SAct 0x0 SErr 0x0 action 0x0 frozen ata2.01: failed command: READ DMA EXT ata2.01: cmd 25/00:08:1b:90:4d/00:00:1a:00:00/f0 tag 0 dma 4096 in res 40/00:00:00:00:00/00:00:00:00:00/10 Emask 0x4 (timeout) ata2.01: status: { DRDY } ata2.00: hard resetting link ata2.01: hard resetting link ata2.00: SATA link down (SStatus 0 SControl 300) ata2.01: SATA link up 3.0 Gbps (SStatus 123 SControl 300) ata2.01: configured for UDMA/133 ata2.01: device reported invalid CHS sector 0 ata2: EH complete It works fine with 2.6.33 lspci | grep ATA gives: 00:1f.2 IDE interface: Intel Corporation 82801JI (ICH10 Family) 4 port SATA IDE Controller #1 00:1f.5 IDE interface: Intel Corporation 82801JI (ICH10 Family) 2 port SATA IDE Controller #2 zgrep ATA /proc/config.gz gives: # CONFIG_RELOCATABLE is not set # CONFIG_ATALK is not set # CONFIG_ATA_OVER_ETH is not set CONFIG_ATA=y # CONFIG_ATA_NONSTANDARD is not set CONFIG_ATA_VERBOSE_ERROR=y CONFIG_ATA_ACPI=y # CONFIG_SATA_PMP is not set # CONFIG_SATA_AHCI is not set # CONFIG_SATA_SIL24 is not set CONFIG_ATA_SFF=y # CONFIG_SATA_SVW is not set CONFIG_ATA_PIIX=y # CONFIG_SATA_MV is not set # CONFIG_SATA_NV is not set # CONFIG_SATA_QSTOR is not set # CONFIG_SATA_PROMISE is not set # CONFIG_SATA_SX4 is not set # CONFIG_SATA_SIL is not set # CONFIG_SATA_SIS is not set # CONFIG_SATA_ULI is not set # CONFIG_SATA_VIA is not set # CONFIG_SATA_VITESSE is not set # CONFIG_SATA_INIC162X is not set # CONFIG_PATA_ACPI is not set # CONFIG_PATA_ALI is not set # CONFIG_PATA_AMD is not set # CONFIG_PATA_ARTOP is not set # CONFIG_PATA_ATP867X is not set # CONFIG_PATA_ATIIXP is not set # CONFIG_PATA_CMD640_PCI is not set # CONFIG_PATA_CMD64X is not set # CONFIG_PATA_CS5520 is not set # CONFIG_PATA_CS5530 is not set # CONFIG_PATA_CS5535 is not set # CONFIG_PATA_CS5536 is not set # CONFIG_PATA_CYPRESS is not set # CONFIG_PATA_EFAR is not set # CONFIG_ATA_GENERIC is not set # CONFIG_PATA_HPT366 is not set # CONFIG_PATA_HPT37X is not set # CONFIG_PATA_HPT3X2N is not set # CONFIG_PATA_HPT3X3 is not set # CONFIG_PATA_IT821X is not set # CONFIG_PATA_IT8213 is not set # CONFIG_PATA_JMICRON is not set # CONFIG_PATA_LEGACY is not set # CONFIG_PATA_TRIFLEX is not set # CONFIG_PATA_MARVELL is not set # CONFIG_PATA_MPIIX is not set # CONFIG_PATA_OLDPIIX is not set # CONFIG_PATA_NETCELL is not set # CONFIG_PATA_NINJA32 is not set # CONFIG_PATA_NS87410 is not set # CONFIG_PATA_NS87415 is not set # CONFIG_PATA_OPTI is not set # CONFIG_PATA_OPTIDMA is not set # CONFIG_PATA_PDC2027X is not set # CONFIG_PATA_PDC_OLD is not set # CONFIG_PATA_RADISYS is not set # CONFIG_PATA_RDC is not set # CONFIG_PATA_RZ1000 is not set # CONFIG_PATA_SC1200 is not set # CONFIG_PATA_SERVERWORKS is not set # CONFIG_PATA_SIL680 is not set # CONFIG_PATA_SIS is not set # CONFIG_PATA_TOSHIBA is not set # CONFIG_PATA_VIA is not set # CONFIG_PATA_WINBOND is not set # CONFIG_PATA_SCH is not set # CONFIG_USB_STORAGE_DATAFAB is not set # CONFIG_USB_STORAGE_CYPRESS_ATACB is not set Andy -- 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
