Patch makes no difference.
Situation: no special kernel boot parameters concerning these disks, no hdparm used no CONFIG_BLK_DEV_HPT366
For 2.5.33:
HPT366: IDE controller on PCI bus 00 dev 48 HPT366: detected chipset, but driver not compiled in! HPT366: chipset revision 1 HPT366: not 100%% native mode: will probe irqs later ide2: BM-DMA at 0x9c00-0x9c07, BIOS settings: hde:pio, hdf:pio HPT366: IDE controller on PCI bus 00 dev 49 HPT366: chipset revision 1 HPT366: not 100%% native mode: will probe irqs later ide3: BM-DMA at 0xa800-0xa807, BIOS settings: hdg:pio, hdh:pio
For 2.5.38: The string HPT does not occur in the boot log.
For 2.5.38 with CONFIG_BLK_DEV_HPT366: all OK at first sight, the disks mount, have not tried to stress them warnings in boot.log:
HPT366: chipset revision 1 HPT366: not 100%% native mode: will probe irqs later ide2: BM-DMA at 0x9c00-0x9c07, BIOS settings: hde:DMA, hdf:DMA hde: Maxtor 93652U8, ATA DISK drive hdf: Maxtor 96147H6, ATA DISK drive hde: set_drive_speed_status: status=0x51 { DriveReady SeekComplete Error } hde: set_drive_speed_status: error=0x04 { DriveStatusError } hdf: set_drive_speed_status: status=0x51 { DriveReady SeekComplete Error } hdf: set_drive_speed_status: error=0x04 { DriveStatusError } Funny that 2.5.33 reports "BIOS settings: hde:pio, hdf:pio" while 2.5.38 says "BIOS settings: hde:DMA, hdf:DMA".
Long ago I would get (sporadic) disk errors and fs corruption with CONFIG_BLK_DEV_HPT366, while all worked without. Today CONFIG_BLK_DEV_HPT366 is required, but apart from the messages quoted I have not seen any error messages or problems. Everything works.
Precisely the same holds for 2.5.39.
