I'm getting the same problems on: Feisty (fully updated as of this post, and regularly updated in general) Linux 2.6.20-13-generic Core 2 Duo 00:1f.1 IDE interface: Intel Corporation 82801G (ICH7 Family) IDE Controller (rev 02) Every once and a while, some things will hang for 30 seconds (until the driver times out and it does a soft reset). A few kernel versions back, my Intel WiFi hardware would die sporadically, and I believe I got kernel messages about hard drive issues at the same time. So, these timeouts are better than forced reboots, but it's still really irritating. Nobody else seems to have mentioned another strange thing I noticed: 'df' lists my data partitions as hdaN, while only /dev/sda* exist. This could just be because I've got my partitions mounted by UUID, and 'df' assumes PATA if they aren't mounted by device name, or something. -- ata_piix problem with Intel ICH7 chipset https://launchpad.net/bugs/53754 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Re: [Bug 53754] Re: ata_piix problem with Intel ICH7 chipset
Hi, again! I expirienced what I assume is a harddrive reset unter MS Windows. The harddisk makes a noise like it is parking it's heads at arbitrary points in time. Somtimes, I notice a short delay in mouse movement during the noise period. I think the windows driver works around the system freeze by using a smaller timeout than Linux. In theory the same should be possible on linux through sysfs. Issuing as root user (or adding it to /etc/rc.local): echo 1 /sys/bus/scsi/devices/0:0:0:0/timeout will set the timeout from 30s to 1s. I tried suspend to ram (and wakeup) with this setting and it still worked.. I'll report back if there are any sideeffects for me. Cheers, Christian PS: Is there any tool like sysctl, which sets parameters in /proc, to set parameters in sysfs? -- ata_piix problem with Intel ICH7 chipset https://launchpad.net/bugs/53754 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I have recently begun using the same laptop I had the problem as my main computer (for the past 3 months I didn't use it much), and apparently updating to Feisty solves the problem. If the involved computers are not mission critical I'd reccommend you to update to Feisty (there's the ocassional breakage, but overall it is rather stable). I do have a CD in the drive.

[Bug 53754] Re: ata_piix problem with Intel ICH7 chipset
François: I'm glad the link was helpful! :) I don't think we know the root cause of this bug; I know that a set of Lenovo ThinkPads suffered something similar to do with the PATA-SATA bridge---I have one of the affected laptops. The workaround for this was that they patched the firmware *on the hard-drive*. (Which also means that if you swap the hard-drive it doesn't make it very far through the boot-process)... Not sure how to solve this one; the fact that upgrading the firmware on the optical drive has an effect gives the impression that there is something fairly wrong with the hardware itself. It's likely that this was worked around in any MS Windows drivers shipped with the machine, and that is what we'd have to do under Linux ...when the actual problem can be tracked down. Are there any kernel versions that /don't/ have this issue? I think somebody mentioned a recent Gentoo kernel that may have had some extra IDE patches. -- ata_piix problem with Intel ICH7 chipset https://launchpad.net/bugs/53754 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Re: [Bug 53754] Re: ata_piix problem with Intel ICH7 chipset
Hi, I have to report that I still have freezes from time to time (during normal desktop work): - ca. 2 a day without a CD in the drive - ca. 1 a day with a CD in the drive However prior to the firmware update I had around 5 times more freezes per day. I'm currently running 2.6.19 on feisty. I first thought that this freezes were gone, because I had none during the first days after applying the firmware update, don't know why. The kernel versions from 2.6.17 on till 2.6.19 didn't make much of a difference. Sorry, that I cannot say anything more positive.

Hi bonsiware, I cannot confirm, but after installing a new firmware on the TS-632D DVDRW drive which I found on http://www.toshibaer.com/firmware/index.php?path=TS-L632D/ those ata timeouts completely disappeared on my Aspire 9412AWSMi, so I suppose this is not a kernel bug, but rather was a firmware bug.

Sorry for not answering earlier - I have been without internet connection. I have found what seems to be a workaround.

A small update. Today I have struck a lucky chord: it's already almost 5h uptime and not a single hang (and, therefore, my wireless connection is working happily). If I do a dmesg, the following suspicious lines appear: [17179641.092000] cdrom: sr0: mrw address space DMA selected [17179641.116000] Assertion failed! qc-n_elem 0,drivers/scsi/libata-core.c,ata_fill_sg,line=2531 [17179641.376000] cdrom: sr0: mrw address space DMA selected [17179641.38] Assertion failed! qc-n_elem 0,drivers/scsi/libata-core.c,ata_fill_sg,line=2531 Whatever that means, I have not seen them before (and I don't remember updating the kernel from yesterday to today). The system seems to work perfectly fine, with no evident negative consequences of the failed assertion, and with no hangs. The CD works seemingly OK, and copying large files out of it doesn't clog the CPU, but the maximum transfer speed seems to be around 2 MB/s. I'd rather endure that than the hangs. If any of you know of any way to force the mrw address space DMA, that might be a good enough workaround for the moment...

After a few seconds, it bails out to a BusyBox prompt complaining that it does not have access to the tty because job control is turned off (or something similar). The MD5sum of the CD is correct, so it is not a recording problem on my side.

Have you tried the latest kernel from dapper-security, as of Aug 3? -- ata_piix problem with Intel ICH7 chipset https://launchpad.net/bugs/53754 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 53754] Re: ata_piix problem with Intel ICH7 chipset
Hi Ben, Thanks for your reply. I'm rather confident I'm current with all updates. The kernel package I'm using is linux-image-2.6.15-26-386 Version 2.6.15-26.46 It is indeed from dapper-security; I can't seem to find a way for synaptic or apt-cache to show me the date, though. I have seen that Edgy has a slightly more advanced kernel version, and that building custom kernels in Dapper and below is rather discouraged. Do you think updating to Edgy would help? (I have quickly glanced through 2.6.17 changelogs, but found nothing libata related). I have run Breezy and Dapper already before release, but not this early in the release cycle. Thanks again for your reply. If there is any other test I can carry out for you, please let me know. -- ata_piix problem with Intel ICH7 chipset https://launchpad.net/bugs/53754 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 53754] Re: ata_piix problem with Intel ICH7 chipset
Just wanted to let you know that this bug has a _really_ nasty interaction with the wireless chip on the laptop (a fairly common ipw3945). When one of these hanges occurs, the module may crash with a PREEMPT, which essentially means that wireless is lost unless the computer is rebooted. The probabilities of this occurring are seemingly related with the network activity at the time of the hang. For instance, if I run aMule and have some downloads going on (nothing too speedy, maybe 30 kb/s between upload and download) the wireless connection will rarely be up for more than 1 hour. (No exaggeration - it actually just went out as I was writing this report - total uptime is 12 _minutes_). I'm a little frustrated at not being able to use my favourite distro effectively on my computer. I understand that maybe this is not the correct place to report the bug, or that I should provide more information, or that you are just very busy at the moment, and that's why there are no advances on the issue. In that case, I'd really like a pointer to what to do next to help you, or to the correct libata mantainer. As I said before, I like to think that I'm a rather savvy Linux user, but if it comes to low-level kernel debugging, I'm totally at a loss. -- ata_piix problem with Intel ICH7 chipset https://launchpad.net/bugs/53754 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

And sorry (again). When the CD error occurs, it is always (or at least the times I have noticed) a read TOC error such as the one above. But there is no disc in the drive to read the TOC from.
