I did the test you asked and yes, it is consistently booting at DMA33 with 2.6.20 and DMA100 with 2.6.19.3 (20 reboots, 10 2.6.20 and 10 2.6.19 in sparse order). I am compiling a 2.6.20 kernel with older pata_amd.c driver and will let you know. seeing the diff I do exspect it to compile cleanly.

Hi,
since upgrading to kernel 2.6.20 my pata disk, using new pata driver, is
initialized maximum  in DMA33 mode (and obviously performances drop
consequently), as you can see from:

Interesting.

Willing to test any patch.

Firstly can you see if its consistently the case that booting 2.6.20
gives UDMA33 and 2.6.19 UDMA100 over a few reboots. If it is please drop
the 2.6.19 drivers/ata/pamd_amd into 2.6.20 and try that.

Thanks

Alan
