Subject: Can't enable dma on /dev/hda
Date: 11 Feb 2003 19:31:16 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1044991886.3923.43.camel@sam> (raw)

Hi!

I'm running a debian 3.0 System using kernel 2.4.19 (also tried 2.4.20).
On this system it's not possible to enable dma on /dev/hda (HDD IDE)

The MoBo is a VIA Board called VIA-C3M266 (CLE266 chipset)
Northbridge: VT8623
Southbridge: VT8235

My kernel is compiled with this features:
ATAPI/IDE/MFM/RLL support --> IDE, ATA and ATAPI Block devices --> 
[*] generic PCI bus-master DMA support
[*] Use PCI DMA by default when available  
[*] VIA82CXXX chipset support

And this is what hdparm tels me:
hdparm -d 1 /dev/hda:

/dev/hda:
 setting using_dma to 1 (on)
 HDIO_SET_DMA failed: Operation not permitted
 using_dma    =  0 (off)


What can I do to force my system to run using dma on /dev/hda.
Or is my CLE266 chipset a bit too new for being supported by 2.4.19/20?


Hope somebody is able to help me
