hi folks,
I've been playing with hdparms on the OB800 (running debian 2.2 -
that 2.2.18pre21 based) as shown on:

	http://www.phys.unsw.edu.au/~mcba/hp800ct.html

The appended patch attemps to fix the following errors seen when the IDE
drive spins up after a sleep mode:
	hda: multwrite_intr: status=0x51 { DriveReady SeekComplete Error }
	hda: multwrite_intr: error=0x04 { DriveStatusError }
*or*
	hda: read_intr: status=0x59 { DriveReady SeekComplete DataReady Error }
	hda: read_intr: error=0x04 { DriveStatusError }

After several retries, both result in "ide0: reset: success" and life
is good again. The patch avoids the reset.

I have two theories on what's wrong: drive forgets multmode was enabled
*or* drive doesn't spin up media when poked. The web page above claims
the drive forgets the hdparm -S (idle time before sleep) and provides a
script to reset that. I've wondered if the same might be true for Multi-sector
mode. Anyway, resetting MultMode seems to fix the problem.

I've learned the drive will spin down in four different cases:
1) hdparm -S10 (50 seconds) and let the machine idle that long
2) BIOS APM has been idle and decides it time to sleep (I have
   mine set to 3 minutes right now)
3) "on/off" button on keyboard
4) hdparm -Y /dev/hda  (this case still generates similar errors.)

This patch does NOT fix another symptom:
o "irq timeout: status=0xd0 { Busy }" followed by "ide0: reset: success".

enjoy!

Wrong method.

APMD has to have the ablity to remember the state.
Spindown is basically a power reset to the drive.

Wrong answer, apmd if its swapped out doesnt get back in on some drives

Okay then are you wanting me to create a struct or bit mask to carry the
the device settings/mode that is set before an APM/ACPI event happens.

Regardless that the answer is wrong, somebody/thing has to keep a copy of
the device settings, and the case of swapout they get nuked.  Thus a
reprobe must happen. yes/no?

Quite probably. It just needs to happen before we need to touch the disk. It
could be we need to mlock something or that the kernel needs to keep it

Andre, Alan,
My grand total experience with IDE drivers is now around 4 hours.
I have no clue what's right or wrong and am quite clueless what the
role of apmd is wrt ide-disk driver. I'm open to testing other fixes
for this problem.

AFAIK, this could be a BIOS bug since no one else seems to have run into
on other laptops and it's reproduce with two different makes of drives. 

The reason I put the fix in the read/multwrite_intr path is the recovery
has to occur before the I/O is retried and before accessing the disk.
If multmode can be set before even trying the I/O, then that's definitely
a better solution. I just have no clue how to implement it.

thanks,
grant
