On boot, Linux will attempt to disable the host protected area on a disk. After a suspend/resume cycle, the BIOS may reenable it (seen on a Thinkpad T40 and R40). As a result, the kernel is now unable to access the HPA.
Is there any issue with just adding a call to idedisk_check_hpa() in the IDE resume code? -- Matthew Garrett | [EMAIL PROTECTED] - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-ide" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
