Subject: sata_sil driver dev 0 failed to IDENTIFY (INIT_DEV_PARAMS failed)
Date: Mon, 14 Aug 2006 03:41:38 -0400 (EDT)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20060814034028.C66081@junker.org> (raw)

howdy,

i am using the sata_sil driver with a Silicon Image, Inc. SiI 3112
Controller and have recently started receiving these messages on driver
load:

[17179867.424000] libata version 1.20 loaded.

[17179975.928000] scsi0 : sata_sil
[17179976.132000] ata2: SATA link down (SStatus 0)

As a result, the maxtor 250gb drive fails to be detected   :(
I'm  roughly 1900 miles away from this box so I have no ability to
physically inspect the device. I'm worried that the drive is blown (sure
wish smartmontools was compatible with libata so I might have seen this
coming sooner!) but  after checking the usual sources I'm still not
entirely sure what this error message means exactly.

Any insights are greatly appreciated!
