Subject2.6.0, SiI3112, md raid1 problem: bio too big device (128 > 15)
Hi all,

I am having trouble creating a raid1 array under 2.6.0. I am able to
create raid0 and raid5 mds, but raid1s fail with "bio too big device hde3
(128 > 15)", which doesn't tell me a lot. I can see it's in
drivers/block/ll_rw_blk.c, right at the boundary with the device driver,
but I'm not enough of a kernel wonk to find out a lot more.

I'm not sure if this has to do with a kernel bug, a bug in the driver for
the controller I have (SiI3112, Silicon Image 3112), or the disks I am
using (Seagate Barracuda 7200.7, 160 GB SATA disks) ... or the combination
thereof :-)

I'm using a VIA KT600 chipset. I have read that 2.5/2.6 may still have
issues with the APIC under VIA chipsets, so I am booting with "noapic"
(this made a number of other problems go away - my network card is working
much better now as a result.)

Kernel version: Linux version 2.6.0-aluminum (root@aluminum) (gcc version
3.3.3 20031206 (prerelease) (Debian)) #1 Mon Dec 22 10:53:33 UTC 2003

Kernel oops: None that I can re-create, although I did get one at some
point during the creation of a raid1 set... a fluke?

What I do:

- Create 2 partitions

Disk /dev/hde: 160.0 GB, 160041885696 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 19457 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes

Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/hde1 * 1 5000 40162468+ 83 Linux
/dev/hde2 5001 5063 506047+ 82 Linux swap
/dev/hde3 5064 19457 115619805 fd Linux raid
autodetect

Disk /dev/hdg: 160.0 GB, 160041885696 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 19457 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes

Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/hdg3 5064 19457 115619805 fd Linux raid
autodetect

- Create entries in /etc/raidtab

raiddev /dev/md0
raid-level 1
nr-raid-disks 2
persistent-superblock 1
chunk-size 8

device /dev/hde3
raid-disk 0
device /dev/hdg3
raid-disk 1

- Make the raidset

disk 0: /dev/hde3, 115619805kB, raid superblock at 115619712kB

lspci -vvv: really long - get it at
http://infocalypse.jimlawson.org:8000/jim/lkml/aluminum.lspci

Hope someone can help.

BTW, congrats on releasing 2.6! I'm very excited.
