Subject: SIL_QUIRK_MOD15WRITE workaround problem on 2.6.14
Date: Mon, 28 Nov 2005 20:04:33 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <438BD351.60902@ucla.edu> (raw)

I've got a dual Opteron 242 machine here with 2x Seagate ST3200822AS 
SATA drives attached to a Silicon Image SI3114 controller, and after 
upgrading to 2.6.14 from 2.6.13, it seems the SIL_QUIRK_MOD15WRITE 
workaround for the sata_sil driver isn't being applied anymore. This 
caused me trouble in the past before my drive was added to the 
blacklist, and this message that comes up when writing (~4GBfiles to 
test) files, right before the computer locks up, is the same as before:
kernel: ata1: command 0x35 timeout, stat 0xd8 host_stat 0x61
In the dmesg, the 'Applying Seagate errata fix' message doesn't appear 
anymore as well.
Finally, without the fix, write speeds are much higher as well, before 
it locks up.
