sata-sil drive detection issues.

Hi all,

Firstly, please CC me in all replies as I am not a member of this list.

I have been having an issue with quite a few of the fedora kernels in detecting drives on a sil3112 or sil3114 PCI card.

When plugging in a SATA drive (I'm using an external esata drive for this test), I see the following appear in dmesg:

[   74.664034] ata10: exception Emask 0x10 SAct 0x0 SErr 0x50000 action 0xe
frozen
[   74.664208] ata10: SError: { PHYRdyChg CommWake }
[   74.664310] ata10: hard resetting link
[   80.416870] ata10: link is slow to respond, please be patient (ready=-19)
[   81.789464] ata10: SATA link up 1.5 Gbps (SStatus 113 SControl 310)
[   81.789572] ata10.00: NODEV after polling detection
[   81.789593] ata10: EH complete

No device is detected.

This seems to occur if the drive is turned on after the machine is started, and when the system boots. I can see the drive in the card BIOS when the system starts if it is powered on after the drive has power.

So far, I have tried the following kernel versions:
2.6.32.26-174.2.xendom0.fc12.x86_64
2.6.35.10-71.fc14.x86_64
2.6.35.11-83.fc14.x86_64
2.6.38-0.rc4.git0.2.fc15.x86_64

If I move the internal SATA cable from the sil3112 or sil3114 card to the onboard SATA ports (detected as AHCI), then the drive is detected as it should and works perfectly.

I have a current bug open for Fedora at:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=677217

The sil3114 that is currently installed seemed to work perfectly using CentOS 5.5 kernel (based on 2.6.18) - I am going to try and install CentOS to a different LV to confirm this shortly.

Does anyone have any suggestions on this?
