Subject: serverworks CSB5 IDE: DMA disabled on secondary channel
Date: Thu, 17 Jul 2008 19:12:27 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <487F7D7B.5040803@hanzlici.cz> (raw)
Server with Intel SHG2 board, servervorks CSB5 rev. 93: After
upgrade from kernel 2.6.22 (IDE serverworks driver) to 2.6.25
(Fedora 9: libata+pata_serverworks driver), SW RAID1 performance
is very bad. Problem is probably with secondary IDE channel,
which has disabled DMA:
# hdparm -Tt /dev/sda
/dev/sda:
Timing cached reads: 828 MB in 2.00 seconds = 414.26 MB/sec
Timing buffered disk reads: 210 MB in 3.01 seconds = 69.83 MB/sec
# hdparm -Tt /dev/sdb
/dev/sdb:
Timing cached reads: 408 MB in 2.00 seconds = 203.72 MB/sec
Timing buffered disk reads: 6 MB in 3.05 seconds = 1.96 MB/sec
dmesg output:
...

It's some sort of pata_serverworks bug, or is needed any special
setup for this driver to work?
What is "simplex DMA" term?
Thanks, Franta Hanzlik
