Hi,

What could that be?
VIA VT6421A mini-PCI card and SATA SSD from Transcend. IXP425 (ARM)
little-endian CPU. 128 MB RAM - VT6421A can access only the first 64 MB
of system RAM, but there is bounce buffering (a la swiotlb) for the
rest.

Sometimes it produces:

ata1.00: exception Emask 0x12 SAct 0x0 SErr 0x1000500 action 0x6
ata1.00: BMDMA stat 0x5
ata1: SError: { UnrecovData Proto TrStaTrns }
ata1.00: cmd c8/00:20:b7:18:38/00:00:00:00:00/e0 tag 0 dma 16384 in
         res 51/40:20:b7:18:38/00:00:00:00:00/e0 Emask 0x12 (ATA bus error)
ata1.00: status: { DRDY ERR }
ata1.00: error: { UNC }
ata1: hard resetting link
ata1: SATA link up 1.5 Gbps (SStatus 113 SControl 310)
ata1.00: configured for UDMA/100
ata1: EH complete

Any ideas?

Try again with a known good SATA disk instead of the SSD.

What is the make and model of that mini-PCI card?

Will do.

It's Commell MP-6421:
http://www.commell.com.tw/product/Peripheral/MiniPCI/MP-6421.HTM

I wonder if the BIOS (which isn't used on IXP4xx) does some fixups to
this chip?

Presumably a SATA bus communication error. Are you sure the SATA 
connections and cable are good?

It seems so. At least they are ok with different hw, and different ones
give the same results.

I couldn't do much about it other than ask the person to take
it to linux-ide (which I don't think he did), but it does make
one wonder if there is some issue with the vt6421a when connected
to an ixp4xx.

Well.

IXP4xx has some special properties like ability of PCI masters to access
only 64 MB of RAM (there is bounce buffering) and emulated inb/outb
operations. It's PCI bus can operate at 66 MHz, though in this case it's
set at 33 MHz (many mini-PCI cards assume 33 MHz while not grounding
M66EN line, it may result in 66 MHz).

ARM is bi-endian, though this machine runs little-endian.

I have performed some tests. Is there anything else I can do to fix
this?

VIA VT6421A mini-PCI (Commell MP-6421) card and SATA II SSD from
Transcend.

Machine A: IXP425 (ARM) CPU, 266 MHz. 64 MB RAM - this time all RAM is
accessible to VT6421A. PCI 33 MHz (using mini-PCI adapter). Both
little-endian and big-endian CPU modes exhibit the problems.

Machine B: AMD64 X2, 64-bit kernel, 2 GB RAM. Mini-PCI 33 MHz.

I've written a small program which only reads from disk, using the same
read pattern that was needed for e2fsck. It constists of about 6500 of
(quite random) lseek()s, each followed by read() (sizes from 524 to
32768 bytes). I do ioctl(fd, BLKFLSBUF, 0) first.

It seems I can trigger the problems almost reliably on Machine A with
rmmod sata_via; modprobe sata_via; test_program. Subsequent runs
(without rmmod/modprobe usually don't show any issue).

It usually shows up on Machine B but only once after reboot, subsequent
rmmod + modprobe doesn't seem to trigger it. The test takes about
4 seconds (if the errors don't show up).

The SSD shows no issues when connected directly to SATA port on the
machine B motherboard (NVidia MCP-55).

Machine A shows no issues when connected to a SATA disk. However, the
disk is much slower (seeks are slow, linear transfer from either device
is way above IXP425 ability). The test takes about 10 seconds with SSD
and 20 seconds with the disk. I wonder if it could be a factor.

Machine A (IXP425) doesn't obviously use the card's BIOS, so the
VT6421A is configured a bit differently (ignoring differences in
addresses etc):

--- Machine A (IXP425)
+++ Machine B (x86-64)
-RAID bus controller: VT6421 IDE RAID Controller (rev 50)
+IDE interface: VT6421 IDE RAID Controller (rev 50) (prog-if 8f [Master
         SecP SecO PriP PriO])

-        Control: Mem- FastB2B+ ...
+        Control: Mem+ FastB2B- ...

Mem - I guess x86-64 enables it for BIOS access. This is the only PCI
device in machine A (ARM).

I have performed some tests. Is there anything else I can do to fix
this?

VIA VT6421A mini-PCI (Commell MP-6421) card and SATA II SSD from
Transcend.

Machine A: IXP425 (ARM) CPU, 266 MHz. 64 MB RAM - this time all RAM is
accessible to VT6421A. PCI 33 MHz (using mini-PCI adapter). Both
little-endian and big-endian CPU modes exhibit the problems.

Machine B: AMD64 X2, 64-bit kernel, 2 GB RAM. Mini-PCI 33 MHz.

I've written a small program which only reads from disk, using the same
read pattern that was needed for e2fsck. It constists of about 6500 of
(quite random) lseek()s, each followed by read() (sizes from 524 to
32768 bytes). I do ioctl(fd, BLKFLSBUF, 0) first.

It seems I can trigger the problems almost reliably on Machine A with
rmmod sata_via; modprobe sata_via; test_program. Subsequent runs
(without rmmod/modprobe usually don't show any issue).

It usually shows up on Machine B but only once after reboot, subsequent
rmmod + modprobe doesn't seem to trigger it. The test takes about
4 seconds (if the errors don't show up).

The SSD shows no issues when connected directly to SATA port on the
machine B motherboard (NVidia MCP-55).

Machine A shows no issues when connected to a SATA disk. However, the
disk is much slower (seeks are slow, linear transfer from either device
is way above IXP425 ability). The test takes about 10 seconds with SSD
and 20 seconds with the disk. I wonder if it could be a factor.

Machine A (IXP425) doesn't obviously use the card's BIOS, so the
VT6421A is configured a bit differently (ignoring differences in
addresses etc):

Mem - I guess x86-64 enables it for BIOS access. This is the only PCI

Correction, the mini-PCI adapter is used to put VT6421A card into
x86-64's normal slot of course. IXP425 only has mini-PCI slot and
doesn't need the adapter.

I guess you didn't see Alan Cox' recent comment about the vt6421:
<http://marc.info/?l=linux-ide&m=125526699500519&w=2>.

You should probably look for a mini-PCI card with a different chipset.

I guess you didn't see Alan Cox' recent comment about the vt6421:
<http://marc.info/?l=linux-ide&m=125526699500519&w=2>.

You should probably look for a mini-PCI card with a different chipset.

Docs have appeared - whether they will help tie it down completely I
don't know.

These two may be worth playing with, especially latency. Forcing the
latency on the problem board would be interesting given that it is a DMA
transfer that is failing.

Update: I've connected Kingston SSD instead of Transcend's. The same
errors appear, but now there is a lot of them (> 30 instead of maybe 5
per my test with Transcend).

Changing the latency byte doesn't seem to change anything. OTOH the
VT6421A mini-PCI card is the only PCI device in system (not counting the
on-CPU AHB-PCI bridge). The problem is also present (to a lesser extent)
when I plug it into x86-64 machine (using mini-PCI adapter). The SSD
works fine if connected to motherboard's NVidia MCP55 SATA controller.

I have read the datasheet and tried some changes to PCI registers but it
doesn't fix it.

I'm going to test x86-64 + VT6421A + Kingston SSD combination soon.

Unfortunately I don't have a (mini) PCI analyser... I will look at
REQ/GNT and similar signals on PCI, though.
