[Bug 1783906] Re: Linux 4.15 and onwards fails to initialize some hard drives
Ok, I find out what happens. While standard SATA setup, chain of functions is called: ... -> ata_eh_recover -> ata_eh_reset. If SATA is not initialized, then hard reset is performed (function ata_do_reset() ). In both drivers I have, function ata_do_reset() returns 0, even if after this reset device is not working (like my second drive HDD). There is no sata_down_spd_limit() calls at all. After hard reset second device is not working, and there is no tries to recover that. At first time, or every time when I physically hotplug device, or I call "echo "- - -" > /sys/class/scsi_host/host1/scan", then chain of functions are called: ata_eh_recover -> ata_eh_schedule_probe, and variable trials is increasing. After a few hotplugs, when trials > ATA_EH_PROBE_TRIALS, then sata_down_spd_limit(link, 1) is called and it cuts down SATA bandwidth. After bandwidth limiting, hard reset is performed and then device is working. I think it's wrong behavior when it's try to limit the bandwidth ony after many hotpluging and hard resets. It could try in one ata_eh_recover() call. For my own, I changed a little code of ata_eh_reset() to check if the device is online after reset: rc = ata_do_reset(link, reset, classes, deadline, true); if( ata_link_offline(link) ) rc = -EPIPE; At the bottom of ata_eh_reset(), if rc == -EPIPE, then sata_down_spd_limit() is called and after that. This completely fixes my problem with not working drive. I don't have to manually reconnect device to be working. Only issue is some delay performed before next reset (schedule_timeout_uninterruptible function).

[Bug 1783906] Re: Linux 4.15 and onwards fails to initialize some hard drives
No, my device doesn't work with 6Gbps. In kernel 4.14 if my drive was offline, function sata_down_spd_limit() cut down link->sata_spd_limit to 1, so it corresponds to 1.5Gbps, and was working. But it wasn't even try to set limit to 3Gbps. In my device, unfortunately mask and link->sata_spd_limit is set to INT_MAX, so next bitwise operations doesn't make any sense, because mask is far out of range valid values. Setting link->sata_spd_limit = 0x7 doesn't work (my device is not 6Gbps capable). In patch I cut mask to be not greater than 0x7, not just 0x7. Actually after masking, kernel tries to connect with 3Gbps (mask 0x3) and it succeed. About comment and hard reset. I get your patch and modified it leaving commit message and comment in code untouched. I don't investigate this topic enough. I have to check how working __sata_set_spd_needed() and sata_link_hardreset() functions. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1783906 Title: Linux 4.15 and onwards fails to initialize some hard drives To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1783906/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I not sure upstream will let us change the value of mask.

[Bug 1783906] Re: Linux 4.15 and onwards fails to initialize some hard drives
I can split my issue into two cases: 1. My HDD inside DVD enclosure is not discovered. Then I have to reset stata device 3 or 4 times by "echo "- - -" > /sys/class/scsi_host/host1/scan" command 2. After stata resets, function sata_down_spd_limit() is called. * In Linux 4.14 this function set up link->sata_spd_limit from value 4294967295 to value 1. After this set up, HDD is discovered and works fine. * Since patch 4.15.0-rc4 value of link->sata_spd_limit is not changed, so HDD is not working at all. Some debug information: Inside function sata_down_spd_limit() is called ata_sstatus_online() and it returns 0 that means link is offline. Value of "link->sata_spd" and "spd" is 0, value of "link->sata_spd_limit" is 4294967295 and value of "bit" is 31. After statement "mask &= ~(1 << bit);" mask is set to 2147483647 Because "spd" is 0, then statement "if (spd > 1)" is not pass and "else return -EINVAL;" is called. Patch "else link->sata_spd_limit = mask;" doesn't work, because mask is 2147483647 and it seems to not be valid value (I think it should be 1, 2, or 4). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1783906 Title: Linux 4.15 and onwards fails to initialize some hard drives To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1783906/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1783906] Re: Linux 4.15 and onwards fails to initialize some hard drives
Hi Joe, The original intent of the patch was not forcing a 6Gbs drive down to 1.5Gbs after hotplug. Noting, SSTATUS = 275 = 0x113 = 0001 0001 0011 That corresponds to ACTIVE PM STATE | GEN1 SPEED | DEVICE DETECTED spd = 1 (corresponds to 1.5Gbps) One question, the print for mask came after these 2 lines of code, right? /* unconditionally mask off the highest bit */ bit = fls(mask) - 1; mask &= ~(1 << bit); In your debug kernel, would please remove the following 2 lines of code (so the code falls thru) if (spd > 1) mask &= (1 << (spd - 1)) - 1; else <= return -EINVAL; <= Remove these 2 lines of code. And finally, at the end __sata_set_spd_needed(), would you please print out these values? spd target *scontrol The original patch didn't force changing mask, but, it does "return -EINVAL", I think it may fix the problem just letting it fall thru to the end of sata_down_spd_limit(), but it would still help to see the original debug values and these new ones with possible fix.

I built a test kernel with debug output as requested by upstream. Can you test this kernel and post your syslog or dmesg output? The test kernel can be downloaded from: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~jsalisbury/lp1783906 This kernel should exhibit the bug, but will write to syslog with output like: ***-> Value of spd_limit: N ***-> Value of sstatus: N ***-> Value of spd: N ***-> Value of mask: N I did a dump_stack in the function, so you should see a new stack trace as well. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1783906 Title: Linux 4.15 and onwards fails to initialize some hard drives To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1783906/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1783906] Re: Linux 4.15 and onwards fails to initialize some hard drives
Hi Joe, Can we put some debug in sata_down_spd_limit() and see some of the values for spdlimit, sstatus, spd, mask, right before the change to not force the mask. Also, can we track the exact path of calling sata_down_spd_limit(). The the intent of the patch was not to force the speed down before reading the link speed from SStatus, it doesn't change mask.

[Bug 1783906] Re: Linux 4.15 and onwards fails to initialize some hard drives
Your test kernel with commit 2dc0b46b5ea3 does indeed fix the issue with the WD HDD. Here's the dmesg with your test kernel: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/745NscYFJh/ As you can see at the top i was using: "[0.00] Linux version 4.15.0-29-generic (root@kathleen) (gcc version 7.3.0 (Ubuntu 7.3.0-16ubuntu3)) #32~lp1783906Commit2dc0b46b5ea3Reverted SMP Mon Jul 30 14:47:35 (Ubuntu 4.15.0-29.32~lp1783906Commit2dc0b46b5ea3Reverted- generic 4.15.18)" And at the end you can see the WD HDD working: "[ 57.091948] ata6.00: ATA-8: WDC WD5003AZEX-00K1GA0, 80.00A80, max UDMA/133" This however did not fix the freeze when rebooting, that bug seems also to be introduced in linux 4.15 but i'll have to do more test about that one and report it as a separate bug. Any ideas on how to get information, dmesg, logs, after the computer freeze before rebooting would be helpful. As i have absolutely no idea what causes that freeze. Only thing i know is that it also doesn't happen on linux 4.14 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1783906 Title: Linux 4.15 and onwards fails to initialize some hard drives To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1783906/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Commit 2dc0b46b5ea3 in v4.15-rc4 looks like it could be related. I built a Bionic test kernel with this commit reverted. The test kernel can be downloaded from: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~jsalisbury/lp1783906 Can you test this kernel and see if it resolves this bug? Thanks in advance! Note about installing test kernels: • If the test kernel is prior to 4.15(Bionic) you need to install the linux-image and linux-image-extra .deb packages. • If the test kernel is 4.15(Bionic) or newer, you need to install the linux-modules, linux-modules-extra and linux-image-unsigned .deb packages. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1783906 Title: Linux 4.15 and onwards fails to initialize some hard drives To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1783906/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I first experienced this issue while testing the second beta of ubuntu 18.04, as i explained in the original bug report this issue doesn't happen if i use linux 4.14 I've installed linux 4.18rc6 as explained in the wiki, but the WD HDD still won't come up.

Did this issue start happening after an update/upgrade? Was there a prior kernel version where you were not having this particular problem? Would it be possible for you to test the latest upstream kernel? Refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . Please test the latest v4.18 kernel[0]. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tag 'kernel-fixed-upstream'. If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the tag: 'kernel-bug-exists-upstream'. Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug as "Confirmed". Thanks in advance.

I forgot to mention the Western Digital hard drive has always been slow to actually show up, and I’ve always gotten those "COMRESET failed, link is slow to respond" messages since I bought it. And two details I forgot to mention about the hard drives: 1 The Toshiba hard drive that works is formatted with GPT. 2 The Western Digital hard drive that doesn't work with linux 4.15+ is formatted with MBR. And just for the record, usb flash drives formatted with MBR work just fine on linux 4.15. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1783906 Title: Linux 4.15 and onwards fails to initialize some hard drives To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1783906/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
