AMD-Vi IO_PAGE_FAULTs and ata3.00: failed command: READ FPDMA QUEUED errors since Linux 4.0

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello!

After long and heavy bisecting, I found this commit
"dm crypt: don't allocate pages for a partial request" [1] being the
cause of the ata errors and AMD-Vi IO_PAGE_FAULTs.

That's the bisect I did with Linus' repository
https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/

# first bad commit: [cf2f1abfbd0dba701f7f16ef619e4d2485de3366] dm crypt:
don't allocate pages for a partial request


How can I verify (e.g. w/ a patch to Linux 4.0.9) if this patch is
really the culprit?

I'm heavily relying upon encryption:

There are 3 disks:
- One 240 GB SSD (crypted LVM, swap and boot partition)
- Two SATA rotational 3 TB disks (WD ST3000DM001-1CH166, encrypted raid
  /dev/md0, LVM)
- All in all 29 logical volumes with xfs as filesystem (besides swap
  and bootpartition - the latter is ext4).

The system is based on an AMD FX8350 processor (8 core) w/ 24GB RAM.
Motherboard is a Gigabyte GA-990XA-UD3. You can find a complete dmesg
output here [2].



I would be glad to get some assistance!


Thanks in advance,
kind regards,
Andreas Hartmann
