Hi all,

I run linux 2.6.29.1 from kernel.org on a custom Freescale MPC5200B based 
board, which has a CF card attached to the 5200's ATA.  The CF seems to run 
nicely, but I am somewhat confused by the interrupts reproted by the kernel.

Immediately after the boot, /proc/interrupts reports (inter alia)

135:          8  MPC52xx Peripherals Edge      mpc52xx_ata
194:          0  MPC52xx SDMA Edge      ATA task
BAD:         44

Then I say 'mount -t vfat -o noatime /dev/sda1 /mnt/cf0', and I get

135:         41  MPC52xx Peripherals Edge      mpc52xx_ata
194:          0  MPC52xx SDMA Edge      ATA task
BAD:         44

Then, I recursively copy a folder to the CF card:

135:     125111  MPC52xx Peripherals Edge      mpc52xx_ata
194:          0  MPC52xx SDMA Edge      ATA task
BAD:     121863

Is it correct that the "ATA task" interrupts are still 0, and that I get such a 
high number of BAD ones?  Is there a way to detect which source actually 
triggered the BAD interrupts?

Thanks in advance,
Albrecht.
