As I mentioned in my first post to -questions, the system in question is currently tracking RELENG_5 and is currently at version 5.4-RELEASE-p6. I have applied Soeren's mkIII revsion n patchset, available at http://people.freebsd.org/~sos/ATA/, and I'm still seeing the messages, although *much* less frequently than before applying the patches. The question I have is: should I revert back to an unaffected 5.x-RELEASE (which version would that be?) or should I consider tracking 5-STABLE instead? > I assume you're acquainted with the ATA DMA timeout discussions of the > last couple months concerning 5.x. Yes, I have read through the discussions. Is it safe yet to assume that the issues (at least for the ICH controllers) have been fixed in -CURRENT?
