Subject: PROBLEM: alim15x3 later than 2.6.1 won't allow DMA to be turned on
Date: Wed, 17 Mar 2004 21:19:35 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <40590737.9060001@cantecsystems.com> (raw)
The alim15x3 module in kernels 2.6.3 and 2.6.4 does not allow me to turn
on DMA via hdparm:
hdparm -d1 /dev/hda
HDIO_SET_DMA failed: Operation not permitted using_dma = 0 (off)
dmesg |grep -i ali
ALI15X3: IDE controller at PCI slot 0000:00:0f.0
ALI15X3: chipset revision 32
ALI15X3: not 100% native mode: will probe irqs later
ALI15X3: port 0x01f0 already claimed by ide0
ALI15X3: port 0x0170 already claimed by ide1
ALI15X3: neither IDE port enabled (BIOS)
---
In kernel 2.6.1 it worked OK:
hdparm -d1 /dev/hda
/dev/hda:
setting using_dma to 1 (on)
using_dma = 1 (on)
dmesg |grep -i ali
