Date: Mon, 29 Nov 2010 13:41:29 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4CF39169.6010601@korkalo.fi> (raw)

Hi,

I am replying to the message here:
http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-scsi/msg47723.html
(I just registered to the mailing list, so I manually added the Reply-To
header, hopefully it's correct)

It seems I have very similar symptoms with 2.6.36, I can reproduce them
easily in a live system, I could even grant shell access if necessary.
It didn't happen at all with stock ubuntu 8.04 LTS kernel
(2.6.32-25-generic-pae).

Currently, 1 out of 3 SATA hard drives are suffering from this.
I left a dd command overnight to read the drive contents to /dev/null.
One drive didn't finish while all the other drives finished with normal
speeds.
I have attached dmesg and smartctl messages.

Should I try and revert the mentioned patches, or something else?
Anyone able to provide direct links to these patches, I don't normally
involve in kernel development so I'm kind of new to this.

Here are my logs. SMART doesn't report any errors, but I see a lot of
errors in dmesg.

My kernel is stock except for BFS scheduler patches. I don't see how that could cause this.
