[Bug 84603] Re: Hard disk I/O randomly freezes when hald is running and optical drive is empty
So it would appear that this is, in fact a hardware issue (at least in my case). Like I said, my mem, mobo, proc, and HDD's all were good. The one thing I never considered: power supply. It would appear that one of my drives was consistently receiving too little power. It just occured to me out of the blue when I was sitting there dealing with this problem and heard what I thought were my fans spinning down, then back up again, within 2 seconds. I had been using a splitter that splits one Molex 4-pin adapter into 2 SATA power adapter. I changed the wire configurations around so that each 4-pin Molex was only allocated one HDD per. Since then I show 2 days of system uptime with no recurrence of this problem. I've since ordered a new power supply, as this one is most certainly about to die. Thanks for the responses, everyone.

[Bug 84603] Re: Hard disk I/O randomly freezes when hald is running and optical drive is empty
I've read through this and countless other posts about this issue (which
I am also experiencing). It truly does render the computer useless.
The only big thing that jumps out at me in this thread is that everyone
is mentioning problems with their CD/DVD drives, and upgrading firmware,
etc. So... I don't even HAVE an optical drive installed on the system,
and this problem happens every time I boot.
I do have an Intel chipset, and I was thinking I'd try blacklisting the
ata piix module, but currently I am remote (over ssh), and the computer
takes several minutes to respond even to shell commands. So I'd venture
to say this isn't only a problem with optical drives. All I have is 3
internal SATA drives. No external USB, no optical, no floppy. I also
tried stopping the HAL daemon, and initially it seemed JUST A LITTLE
better, although the messages still show up in the syslog. I don't know
if I should try to blacklist ata piix while I'm remote, as I've noticed
in reading through posts that it might render the machine unbootable.
Anything else I can try? This is running Intrepid with all recent
updates, 3 internal SATA drives, two of which are using mdadm for 3
RAID1 partitions and 1 RAID0 partition. And I've done countless
diagnostics and all hardware appears normal. Also, I've removed the
third (non-RAID) drive and the problem still happens. errors:

Re: [Bug 84603] Re: Hard disk I/O randomly freezes when hald is running and optical drive is empty
I no longer have this problem after replacing the SATA data cable with a better quality latch cable. Recently I rebuilt the computer with the problem and used a cheap cable again, how quickly you forget - the problem recurred. The computer is now running OK with a set of good quality cables. The computer is in an office and is used every day, all day so it is getting a good work out - and its stable. Kevin.

The problem is solved on my machine - I replaced the SATA cabling with better quality Akasa latch cables instead of the cheap cables that come with the motherboards. So far I have installed and run Ubuntu/Hardy and installed Gentoo (on another partition) and compiled X/Gnome with no problems. The machine has been rebooted several times and has not frozen once. So I can confirm that one possible cause of the error - [ 231.478375] ata1.00: exception Emask 0x0 SAct 0x0 SErr 0x0 action 0x2 frozen Could be poor quality cabling.

I have same problem with my SATA, it works good in windows. I have another question. If disk fails in the middle of copying then, I had to reboot to set it back online. Is there any way to re-attach this disk without rebooting?

[Bug 84603] Re: Hard disk I/O randomly freezes when hald is running and optical drive is empty
A few more notes from testing. A lot of people talking about CD-ROM drives. I have two optical drives, one Samsung and one NEC. I disconnected the Samsung drive - same problem. Connect both optical drives plus Samsung SATA harddrive - problem Connect both optical drives plus Maxtor SATA harddrive - problem Disconnect SATA hardrive - no problem From what I can tell the issue is with the SATA harddrive and not with any of the optical drives. Currently I am using the system everyday with both optical drives and an IDE hard drive with no problems. As soon as I reconnect the SATA hard drive - problems. The SATA harddrive has been used before in a Ubuntu box with no problems - these issues developed sometime around an upgrade to Feisty. Currently I am using Gutsy with exactly the same problems. Another point - the piix workaround doesn't seem to be the key to the issue - I have a via board and I get the problem. -- Hard disk I/O randomly freezes when hald is running and optical drive is empty https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/84603 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I truly hope there's less people affected by these libata issues than it seems, or 7.10 will be a fiasco :-( I'm kind of lucky that I only started to have problems in 2.6.22, in Feisty devel, and problem is not exactly this, but a probably less annoying one (that I can't find anymore on launchpad :-$ ) that freezes during boot for 2 minutes. I've been following these issues on launchpad and lkml and it seems to be a big deal. Granted, 2.6.23 works beautifully for me; I don't know whether it was the several SiS 5513 fixes that went in, the (previously unimplemented in libata) cable (speed) detection, whether my LG 4480B combo drive was blacklisted or whether updating the firmware helped the new kernel. All I know is that 30s still seems way to long even if we were talking SCSI devices and trying 3 times before dropping to ATA33 (still) seems pointless to me.

Kubuntu Feisty Fawn kernel 2.6.20-16-generic I believe the problem is occuring with my SATA hard drive, which is a Samsung SP0812C. It stops responding quite often. It seems that most people that are having this problem are fixing it with 'piix', but I have a VIA chipset rather than an Intel one. I will attach some logs below.

So, I have a stupid question. Why in the world is hal polling a cdrom anyway? Can't it just listen for open/close events and check the drive then? Is the problem that nothing generates these type of events?

An interesting bit of information is that under kernel 2.6.22-6-generic the situation seemed to have fixed itself. I was getting the errors to the log, but I was not noticing the lockups. Now, with kernel 2.6.22-7 the lockups are becoming very noticable.

Has there been any more word from developers in regards to when/if this issue will be resolved WITHOUT the need to crossflash? As stated above, this does appear to be an issue with the linux kernel, hald, etc. And in particular, this issue does not appear in MS Windows.

[Bug 84603] Re: Hard disk I/O randomly freezes when hald is running and optical drive is empty
I tried some new things to further the resolution on this BUG. I disconnected the DVD drive, and it did not fix the problem. I disabled smartmond (which was monitoring my two HDs and worked fine in edgy) and the problem went away. I no longer got sdb freezing and going away when I booted. So in this case it turns out to be an interaction between smartmond and the new ata-piix driver and not hald in my case. I reconnected my cd, and everything still worked, until I put an Audio CD in the drive. then I got the following errors on my main SATA Hard drive, which resolved itself after about 30 seconds and I was able to rip that cd. Ripping worked fine under Edgy BTW. I really regret upgrading to fiesty, but its too late to go back :( This happened to my primary SATA HD after inserting an Audio CD into the DVD drive...

Another point is if this were not a kernel bug, then how come everything works fine when I boot into kernel 2.6.17-11-generic? The only difference being the kernel.

Thius is all well and good however I have a TSSTcorp CD/DVDW SH-S183L and it has the latest firmware, so I can;t upgrade. I think the point is being missed here that a bug in the driver is causing this problem, and flashing the cdrom drive to stop a hard disk from freezing up is a workaround whatever this bug is. I hope the fact that flashing some cd drives works around the bug isn't stopping this bug reaching the correct developer. Also it appears that any time the HAL is triggered (ie plugging in a USB flash drive etc) stimulates this bug apparently. -- Hard disk I/O randomly freezes when hald is running and optical drive is empty https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/84603 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
