No problem, here is the log of sata_sil24 while booting the kernel
2.6.22.1 on Dell latitude D820 with SIIG SC-SAE512-S1 SATA II
ExpressCard 54 connected to DS-2350S 5-BAY enclosure.

I just rebooted and got exactly the same log (did diff), it seems very
reproducible.

Can you try to update the firmware as explained in the SIMG support page
and see whether that fixes the problem?

Yes, the probing starts with the bottom drive and progresses to the
top. But it seems for each drive it resets (from the bottom) all
already probed drives.

You should be.  What do you mean by not being able to enable write-caching?

SRST failure puts the host port into non-responding state and the driver
resets the host port which in turn resets the PMP, so libata tries to
reinitialize everything.  Can you post boot log with printk timestamp
(CONFIG_PRINTK_TIME) turned on?

Also, does the attached patch change the behavior?

There are some problems because system keeps freezing, I have changed
the expresscard, but overall behavior is the same. 

The patch has not changed anything, here is the log with PRINTK_TIME.

Thanks.  Will try to reproduce the problem and fix it.

Had a major crash (had to push the switch off) and now things behave
very different!

Now when I say hdparm -W1 /dev/sdb and then check, the write cache is
finally on!

Also, the booting went without a hitch see log at the end.

Will do if the hard/soft reset appears again, for the moment
everything behaves differently from before (maybe because the card did
not reset the array when I switched the laptop off?)

You probably need to power off the array to reproduce the problem.

There is definitely a problem with hdparm and the 
SIL-3132 <-> SIL-4726

Now I can not turn the write caching off:

pts/1#> hdparm -W 0 /dev/sdb

/dev/sdb:
 setting drive write-caching to 0 (off)
pts/1#> hdparm -i /dev/sdb

Hi Tejun,

I have made the following experimental observation on the
SIL-3132 <-> SIL-4726 writing speed.

I have 5 Seagate 750GB disks, each running at 3.0 Gbps
All have write-cache enabled.

I can write to 1 disk at 74MB/s

Writing to 2 disks simultaneously, the speed drops down to 37MB/s
per disk (sum is still 74MB/s)

Writing to 3 disks simultaneously, the speed drops down to 25MB/s
per disk, etc.

Any idea why each disk gets only a fraction of the bandwidth when
accessed simultaneously? The port multiplier ought to sustain 300MB/s

Thanks, Igor
