I've recently started getting errors like this (this example is from
2.4.20-pre3-ac2):
Jan 9 14:20:48 carthage kernel: hda: dma_timer_expiry: dma status ==
0x61
Jan 9 14:20:48 carthage kernel: hdc: dma_timer_expiry: dma status ==

I have a Promise 20267 PCI IDE controller card on an Epox 8RDA motherboard.
The motherboard is brand new and I never got these kinds of errors with
my previous MSI K7T Turbo board. There are two drives on the card:
hda: WDC WD400BB-00AUA1, ATA DISK drive
hdc: WDC WD400BB-00DEA0, ATA DISK drive
which are both alone on the seperate controllers. I've tried both 2.4
and 2.5 kernels (2.4.20, 2.4.20-ac2, 2.4.20-pre3-ac2, 2.5.[53-55] and
get the same errors.
Does anyone have idea what is causing this? I can offer more information
(.config etc) if necessary.

I believe the low bit set in the dma_status means that the DMA transfer
is still in progress. Since the timer has expired, that means it's been
in progress for 10 seconds. Odds are the drive has stopped responding.
Since it's a Western Digital drive, it probably needs to be powercycled
to come back.
I don't think this is a problem with the controller card, but I could be
wrong.

Well, I have had the first drive for about a year and a half (I think)
and the second drive since August. I never had any problems out of them
with the same controller card on my previous motherboard (MSI K7T
Turbo). The problems didn't arise until the other day when I got my new
board.
The errors occur over and over; the drive will come back for a few
seconds and then the error will occur again. I usually reboot at this
point.

check the CRC count on the first drive, hda. Its
65584 !!! Thats huge. This
CRC values result in UDMA downgrades. Also, check
the reallocation sector
count. A high value here means possible timeouts.
With high reallocation
sector count, there could be multiple mappings a
drive would have to look
into to get to the proper sector. You should change
the drive hda and also
the cable. Then try again.
Thanks
Manish

Oops! One of my IDE cables wasn't seated properly. Thanks for the help!
At least it wasn't a kernel bug :)
