SubjectRe: Linux 2.5.67-ac2: ide reset issue
Hi,
I tested 2.5.67-ac2 with two continuous drive reset call,
dmesged out oops messages as below. system didn't crash
like under 2.4.21-pre1-ac1, but that race still exist.
oops message:

hda: DMA disabled
------------[ cut here ]------------
kernel BUG at drivers/ide/ide.c:1603!

ide0: reset: success

I don't know if there's enough reason to change reset semantics
now to wait for completion, so that the next call be free of race.
and I once had a simpler fix to let it delay another 50ms, that works
on my box but seems not a thorough one. does it help?
