This turned out to be the key.
Version 1.51 of ata-lowlevel.c added a check for stat0/1, err, lsb, and
I am just wondering about this. As far as I can tell, I have the
ata-lowlevel.c file from March with this CVS tag (I run cvsup every
other day, so this should be the latest for 5-Stable):
src/sys/dev/ata/ata-lowlevel.c,v 1.44.2.5 2005/03/24 18:44:27 mdodd
It is the 1.44.2.5 version, and I believe that I have been using it for
awhile, eve before the sistuation showed up with my ATA drive not
booting. As I reported bvefore, the July 4th cvs code worked for me, but
not a recent one (late September). I would guess that something would
have changed in that interim. You seem to be targeting either a
different cvs version (intended for HEAD) or the problem you mention
could have been broken over a period of time with help from other cvs
changes? I don't know, but I will try the patch when I can.
These are my relevent supfile config options:
*default release=cvs tag=RELENG_5
*default delete use-rel-suffix
src-all

msb being identical. If they are, it aborts the probe. The attached
patch creates an option ATA_AGGRESSIVE_PROBE which disables this for the
old aggressive behavior (which may wait up to the full 31 seconds).
I also took the liberty of reworking the still-busy check from 3
equality tests to 2 bitmask tests. It seems simpler to my eye with
identical results, but if I missed something or the other style was
preferred please let me know.
The patch is against 5-STABLE because that's what I have.
