Bug in IDE controllers when connected to PCI?


Hi to all,
i think i run into a bug in current stable kernel's regarding IDE controllers 
and PCI.
Sorry for the long post, but i need some help from you to investigate this 
deeper.

I own a CDRW Philips 1610A, here is hdparm -i and -I output:

(hdparm -i)

Re: Bug in IDE controllers when connected to PCI?

Hi,

I am experiencing the same problem. The controller is a promise-20269 
and four disks are attached to it (dma is turned on for all drives)
I get the same error messages on the console (except for the scsi 
message). The message 'seeking beyond end of device' is also logged to 
console. Additionally, file corruption occurs in files that are changed 
very often (logfiles, database files). It seems that the erroneous data 
in the logfiles comes from other files on the same partition (/var). 
Sometimes it takes up to 12 hours before corruption occurs. The program 
I am using to test this is a java program that does write/read/modify 
and uses md5 to see if a file was changed (corrupted) without accessing 
the file directly. Sometimes, the complete systems crashes (it cannot 
execute a binary or find a library). I encountered this on kernel 2.4.20.

I am testing 2.4.17 to see if it has the same problem (gardiol said this 
one should be fine).

What can be the cause of this problem ? If more information is needed, 
or additional tests are required, let me know.

Greets,

Bart

Re: Bug in IDE controllers when connected to PCI?

Hi,

unfortunately, linux-2.4.17 does not support promise-20269 ;-(

Greetings,

Bart

RE: Bug in IDE controllers when connected to PCI?

	Native support of the PDC20269 chip did not show up until 2.4.19. If
I recall native 48LBA appeared in 2.4.16. You could try pulling
drivers/ide/pdc202xx.c from 2.4.19 and dropping it into 2.4.17 to replace
the present drivers/ide/pdc202xx.c and giving that a try.

Problem upgrading kernel 2.2.x ->2.4.x

Hello.

I hope this is the right list.
Now i have a couple of motorolas cpn 5360's and cpn5300. on the 5300 i have no problems with 2.4 or 2.2 kernels.
But i have not been able boot with the 2.4.x kernel, as far as i can understand it looks like a ide problem. 
Im sorry about the long post.. but i'm not sure i can explan the problem without showing the bootup message.

I hope this information helps to understand what goes wrong.
