I have an ASUS motherboard and there is the SATA configuration in the BIOS. I have changed the SATA controller mode to RAID mode (there is IDE and SATA mode).

Fortunato, interesting. Do you have any references to these user reports? I don't think I saw so much of this issue with the 2.6.32 kernels, so testing your 2.6.32 kernel might not be so conclusive. Now with the 2.6.34 and especially 2.6.35-rc (drm-next) I see it a lot. So it would be great if you could patch a recent kernel.

It is for sure some sort of kernel bug and/or deficiency, because - a process should not get blocked for several minutes or more because of an SCSI/ATA controller or HDD I/O error, no matter what the controller or HDD does (or doesn't do), it should get I/O error / timeout - md RAID other than level 0 should not hang for several minutes if one component hangs - it should read from the other components and try to reset the one with the problem I've also experienced frozen tasks in D+ state from several seconds up to 1-2 minutes without any messages logged - it might be well related to the same problem. -- ata exception and hang when booting, at T=n.81606 s https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/397096 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I also had the ata ... frozen symptom on system with AMD SB700/SB800 controler with 2.6.26, 2.6.30 and 2.6.32. Comparing on similar systems, it seems (could be) that it occurs more often with distinct hard drives or under distinct circumstances (?). You may want to try some of following (step by step) to narrow down possible causes: - disable SATA link speed to 1.5 Gbps - (some of these) kernel command line parameters: hpet=disable highres=off nohz=off nohdparm - disable services accessing drives: smartd, hddtemp, ...? - change scheduler to deadline (echo 'deadline' /sys/Block/sdx/queue/scheduler) then test: - test with RAID0 array over the drives - test with RAID1 array over the drives - test parallel access to single drives - test if vibrations have an influence (?) and of course - test the hardware extensively (memtest86+ version 4.x, winxp with prime95 and bonnie++ in parallel (http://www.ziborski.net/wartung/bonnie++_win32.zip) (give lower priority to prime95), etc.) then - try new kernel - read libata FAQ for further ideas good luck ;) -- ata exception and hang when booting, at T=n.81606 s https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/397096 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 397096] Re: ata exception and hang when booting, at T=n.81606 s
I have seen this when resuming from hibernation as well. Unfortunately the timestamps in the hdparm.log are then difficult to compare to the timestamps in dmesg. I therefore added a sysrq to the wrapper, so you will find SysRq : Show Regs in dmesg when hpparm is run. So the coincidences should be easier to verify, using for instance: egrep 'Emask|SysRq' /var/log/syslog ** Attachment added: new version of the /sbin/hdparm wrapper http://launchpadlibrarian.net/34857873/hdparm.wrapper2 -- ata exception and hang when booting, at T=n.81606 s https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/397096 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Mikael, what is happening there at 67s? Like 5 acpid power events. And 3 at 129s. Definitely something wrong. hdparm -B 254 is being set all the time, but never the -B 128 which would happen if AC was disconnected. Can you please file a new bug, since that is a separate issue? Attach your /var/log/daemon there, unless ubuntu-bug acpid does it for you. The frozen messages typically arrive timestamped 30s after the freeze was triggered, so at 21s, 130s, 190s which always match a hdparm call. -- ata exception and hang when booting, at T=n.81606 s https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/397096 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Tormod, In any case, without hdparm, no symptoms for over 18 hours. Left the laptop on overnight just to see. Normally the locking and freezing would have occured regularly for me, with a period of something like 10 minutes, maybe less. Suspend/resume shouldn't have been involved, since I was working with the laptop (trying at least) all the time. Unplugging of AC did not occur either. Might it be that the system is restarting something else? that triggers the same behaviour? I will reboot with the logging wrapper and see what happens. Will put the periodicity of freezes here if it is of any interest, and will be glad to run any other tests that might shed light on the phenomenon. -- ata exception and hang when booting, at T=n.81606 s https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/397096 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Tormod.
I'll try your tip and see what happens.
In the meantime I can add some observations: Alongside with the freeze entry in
the log there are allways these entries for me:
[ 159.816518] ata1: drained 134 bytes to clear DRQ.
[ 159.816557] ata1.00: exception Emask 0x0 SAct 0x0 SErr 0x0 action 0x6 frozen

[ 160.054189] ata1.00: device reported invalid CHS sector 0
[ 160.054210] ata1: EH complete
Theese entries are allways associated with a lit HD LED and the system
is frozen for a while. Sometimes the file system gets remounted ro after
having been corrupted.
Sometimes the system decides that the hard drive is only capable of
UDMA/66 and changes it to that after the soft reset.
The line: device reported invalid CHS sector 0, seems to be an off by
one error reported in http://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/41773/ and
fixed upstream, and not seen often The bug isn't very visible because
ata_tf_read_block() is used only when generating sense data for a failed
RW command and CHS addressing isn't used too often these days., Tejun
Heo says.
But why does the hard drive need to be soft reset?
I never had theese problems with Jaunty, or earlier releases that I have
upgraded from.

I had this problem since Ubuntu 8.04 (previous releases were Ok). -- ata exception and hang when booting https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/397096 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Sometimes it continues booting after a 30 s pause but sometimes it just hangs and I have to use sysctrl-B. I have tried netconsole to see what goes on in this case. There are ata1: SRST failed errors, before I get end_request: I/O error. ** Attachment added: netconsole.log http://launchpadlibrarian.net/30387001/netconsole.log -- ata exception and hang when booting https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/397096 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I also moved away /etc/readahead/desktop, but it does not help. Most often it hangs before X has started, I still see the _ cursor in the upper left corner. A few times X has started so I see the mouse pointer. One thing that seems to help is to use ctrl-S and ctrl-Q during boot to slow down things. I let it sit for a while before I let gdm loose, and then it will go on without hanging. -- ata exception and hang when booting https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/397096 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Now I have a sleep 7 script before and after /etc/rc2.d/gdm and that works. When I look through the syslogs, the exception always happen between [ 90.066878] tg3 :06:06.0: firmware: requesting tigon/tg3_tso5.bin and [ 128.062549] tg3 :06:06.0: wake-up capability disabled by ACPI [ 128.062558] tg3 :06:06.0: PME# disabled so I suspected it was something like in bug 331415.

[Bug 397096] Re: ata exception and hang when booting
I notice that both the tg3 and the radeon modules reports PCI INT A - GSI 16 (level, low) - IRQ 16. Could it be an interrupt conflict? There is of course the case when I have blacklisted tg3, but other modules (?) also reports this, like HDA Intel and uhci_hcd. -- ata exception and hang when booting https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/397096 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Forgot to say I have been seeing this for a while (several releases) but it is worse now.
