That's already in my upstream kernel, here. commits ba951841ceb7fa5b06ad48caa5270cc2ae17941e and a3bec5c5aea0da263111c4d8f8eabc1f8560d7bf. sata_mv and sata_nv still reliably poop themselves here, whereas its rock solid with 2.6.23.1. Sounds like different issues from yours, as I see a stream of SATA errors on the bad kernels, errors which are often a symptom of something whacked in the DMA engine (misprogramming causes the silicon to generate bogus FIS's, which the device then chokes on) Jeff - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/ | ||||||||||||
