And 128 B is not enough , 256 is OK (why did it work last time?). We just wrote a buffer to the chip but the chip is writing the previous one to the drive - so if a problem arises, both buffers are lost. This fixes the corruption (although the "start > 0" check seems wrong now): --- a/drivers/scsi/g_NCR5380.c +++ b/drivers/scsi/g_NCR5380.c @@ -598,23 +598,17 @@ static inline int generic_NCR5380_psend(struct NCR5380_hostdata *hostdata, CSR_HOST_BUF_NOT_RDY, 0, hostdata->c400_ctl_status, CSR_GATED_53C80_IRQ, - CSR_GATED_53C80_IRQ, HZ / 64) < 0) - break; - - if (NCR5380_read(hostdata->c400_ctl_status) & - CSR_HOST_BUF_NOT_RDY) { + CSR_GATED_53C80_IRQ, HZ / 64) < 0 || + (NCR5380_read(hostdata->c400_ctl_status) & + (CSR_HOST_BUF_NOT_RDY | CSR_GATED_53C80_IRQ))) { /* The chip has done a 128 B buffer swap but the first * buffer still has not reached the SCSI bus. */ if (start > 0) - start -= 128; + start -= 256; break; } - if (NCR5380_read(hostdata->c400_ctl_status) & - CSR_GATED_53C80_IRQ) - break; - if (hostdata->io_port && hostdata->io_width == 2) outsw(hostdata->io_port + hostdata->c400_host_buf, src + start, 64); DTC seems to work too. -- Ondrej Zary
