Original thread:

I interpret this as, before you added 'dma-coherent' to your PCIe controller
device tree node:

Sophgo SG2042 PCIe + ASM2824 + JMB585
worked fine, without any libata.force=noncq kernel parameter which disables NCQ.


After adding 'dma-coherent' to your PCIe controller device tree node:
Sophgo SG2042 PCIe + ASM2824 + JMB585
no longer works fine, and you need to disable NCQ to not get filesystem
corruption.


If this was a problem with the JMB585 chip, why did it work fine to run with NCQ
enabled before you did firmware changes + added 'dma-coherent' to your PCIe
controller device tree node?

Disabling NCQ will significantly reduce the drive performance.


Kind regards,
Niklas
