Hello,
I have some troubles with my Adapdec AAC-1210SA;
Configuration:
Adaptec AAC-1210SA SATA controller,
2 HDD Seagate Barracuda 7 120G (ST3120827AS)
Fedora Core 3, kernel 2.6.11.7 without any patches
During about month all works fine, but now I created Software RAID1:
md0 (sd[ab]1) - /boot, md1 (sd[ab]2) - /
When I ran
mkadm /dev/md1 --fail /dev/sda3
mkadm /dev/md1 --remove /dev/sda3
all was ok, but after
mkadm /dev/md1 --add /dev/sda3
(when /dev/sda3 adding to /dev/md1 at speed ~ 50-60 Mb/sec)
I got these errors:
ata1: status=0x51 { DriveReady SeekComplete Error }
ata1: error=0x04 { DriveStatusError }
and sometimes also
ata1: command 0x35 timeout, stat 0xd9 host_stat 0x1
ata1: status=0xd9 { Busy }
Current sda: sense key Recovered Error
ASC=86 ASCQ=42
ATA: abnormal status 0xD9 on port 0x4281A087
ATA: abnormal status 0xD9 on port 0x4281A087
ATA: abnormal status 0xD9 on port 0x4281A087
...
But sda3 works fine, because
mke2fs -j /dev/sda3
e2fsck -cv /dev/sda3
reported no bad sectors
When I remove sdb3 from md1, and after add it to md1, I have the same errors
for ata2 or sdb.
I found in sata_sil.c code:
/* TODO firmware versions should be added - eric */
struct sil_drivelist {
const char * product;
unsigned int quirk;
} sil_blacklist [] = {
{ "ST320012AS", SIL_QUIRK_MOD15WRITE },
{ "ST330013AS", SIL_QUIRK_MOD15WRITE },
{ "ST340017AS", SIL_QUIRK_MOD15WRITE },
{ "ST360015AS", SIL_QUIRK_MOD15WRITE },
{ "ST380013AS", SIL_QUIRK_MOD15WRITE },
{ "ST380023AS", SIL_QUIRK_MOD15WRITE },
{ "ST3120023AS", SIL_QUIRK_MOD15WRITE },
{ "ST3160023AS", SIL_QUIRK_MOD15WRITE },
{ "ST3120026AS", SIL_QUIRK_MOD15WRITE },
{ "ST3200822AS", SIL_QUIRK_MOD15WRITE },
{ "ST340014ASL", SIL_QUIRK_MOD15WRITE },
{ "ST360014ASL", SIL_QUIRK_MOD15WRITE },
{ "ST380011ASL", SIL_QUIRK_MOD15WRITE },
{ "ST3120022ASL", SIL_QUIRK_MOD15WRITE },
{ "ST3160021ASL", SIL_QUIRK_MOD15WRITE },
{ "Maxtor 4D060H3", SIL_QUIRK_UDMA5MAX },
{ }
};
I added my ST3120827AS as { "ST3120827AS", SIL_QUIRK_MOD15WRITE },
rebuilt kernel and made reboot.
With new kernel raid1 reconstruction works at speed ~ 15-20 Mb/sec with load
average ~2, but without errors. May be ST3120827AS must be blacklisted too?
Also I found this code in siimage.c (old driver for AAC-1210SA):
static int is_dev_seagate_sata(ide_drive_t *drive)
{
const char *s = &drive->id->model[0];
unsigned len;
if (!drive->present)
return 0;
len = strnlen(s, sizeof(drive->id->model));
if ((len > 4) && (!memcmp(s, "ST", 2))) {
if ((!memcmp(s + len - 2, "AS", 2)) ||
(!memcmp(s + len - 3, "ASL", 3))) {
printk(KERN_INFO "%s: applying pessimistic Seagate "
"errata fix\n", drive->name);
return 1;
}
}
return 0;
}
May be all Seagate SATA hard drives must be blacklisted in sata_sil.c ?
