Howdy,
I did an upgrade on a system the other day; we went from 2 * 8G drives in software RAID1, running off the motherboard's IDE chipset, to 2 * 80G drives in software RAID1, running off a Promise Ultra133 TX2 card.
I upgraded the kernel at the same time to 2.4.24 w/ grsec patches. The drives are detected fine:
PDC20269: IDE controller at PCI slot 00:0d.0 PCI: Found IRQ 10 for device 00:0d.0 PDC20269: chipset revision 2 PDC20269: not 100% native mode: will probe irqs later PDC20269: ROM enabled at 0xe5000000 ide2: BM-DMA at 0xe400-0xe407, BIOS settings: hde:pio, hdf:pio ide3: BM-DMA at 0xe408-0xe40f, BIOS settings: hdg:pio, hdh:pio hde: WDC WD800JB-00ETA0, ATA DISK drive blk: queue c01a2db8, I/O limit 4095Mb (mask 0xffffffff) hdg: WDC WD800JB-00ETA0, ATA DISK drive blk: queue c01a3224, I/O limit 4095Mb (mask 0xffffffff) ide2 at 0xd400-0xd407,0xd802 on irq 10 ide3 at 0xdc00-0xdc07,0xe002 on irq 10 hde: attached ide-disk driver. hde: host protected area => 1 hde: 156301488 sectors (80026 MB) w/8192KiB Cache, CHS=9729/255/63, UDMA(100) hdg: attached ide-disk driver. hdg: host protected area => 1 hdg: 156301488 sectors (80026 MB) w/8192KiB Cache, CHS=9729/255/63, UDMA(100)
However, we get these sorts of errors often:
hdg: dma_timer_expiry: dma status == 0x22 hdg: error waiting for DMA hdg: dma timeout retry: status=0x58 { DriveReady SeekComplete DataRequest } hdg: status timeout: status=0xd0 { Busy } PDC202XX: Secondary channel reset. hdg: drive not ready for command ide3: reset: success
And the machine is randomly locking up, and of course, on reboot, the raid array is rebuilt. Ouch. Any clues as to why? I'm sure the hard drive hasn't failed as it's brand new; I suspect a chipset compatibility problem or something.
