Hi all,
I've started using Jeff's libata patches from
http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/jgarzik/libata/, mostly so
I can check the SMART status of a few drives that seem to be on their
way out. I've only just noticed that recently, my kernel has been
spewing out messages like the following every minute or so:

These messages don't seem to cause any trouble and I don't get any other
errors. Is this just because of increased verbosity due to the patches?
Can these messages be safely ignored / nuked?
I'm using 2.6.13-ck5 + 2.6.13-rc7-libata1.patch +
reiser4-for-2.6.12-3.patch.gz + vesafb-tng-0.9-rc7-r1-2.6.13-rc6.patch.
ata{1,2} are on a sata_sil controller, ata{3,4} are on sata_via.
It also has to be noted that I get similar errors when I try to
enable/disable SMART automatic offline tests (and other similar
settings) on a drive:
[4377001.595000] ata1: PIO error, drv_stat 0x51
[4377001.595000] ata1: translated ATA stat/err 0xb0/00 to SCSI

SK/ASC/ASCQ 0xb/47/00
[4377001.597000] ata1: status=0xb0 { Busy }
I'm getting similar messages when playing with SMART on another machine
with vanilla 2.6.13.1 + 2.6.13-rc7-libata1.patch, but not the regular,
minute-by-minute messages on that machine. This one has two drives on a
sata_piix controller.
Other than that, no trouble. Thanks for the patches, they're really
handy! :-)
PS: I'm willing to apply patches to, and reboot at will, the first
machine, but not the second since it's my production web server.

Aha! That would have been hddtemp scanning the temperature every minute
or so. Now, how come these messages appear in the first place? Needless
to say the temperature is retrieved correctly.
