Apologies for the long delay in responding. Because of the nature of this machine (no CD-drive, and no keyboard, mouse or screen) I'd like to try to test this using option (1). However, I'm a little confused as to the process for getting hold of the correct kernel packages; I see that Ben Collins has posted what look like the right packages here: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/pub/next/2.6.27-rc3/hardy/ ... am I right in assuming that I simply need to install the following two packages: - linux-headers-2.6.27-1-server_2.6.27-1.1_i386.deb and - linux-image-2.6.27-1-server_2.6.27-1.1_i386.deb and then to run sudo grub-update? Or do I need to follow another process, and if so, what?!

The Ubuntu Kernel Team is planning to move to the 2.6.27 kernel for the upcoming Intrepid Ibex 8.10 release. As a result, the kernel team would appreciate it if you could please test this newer 2.6.27 Ubuntu kernel. There are one of two ways you should be able to test: 1) If you are comfortable installing packages on your own, the linux- image-2.6.27-* package is currently available for you to install and test. --or-- 2) The upcoming Alpha5 for Intrepid Ibex 8.10 will contain this newer 2.6.27 Ubuntu kernel. Alpha5 is set to be released Thursday Sept 4. Please watch http://www.ubuntu.com/testing for Alpha5 to be announced. You should then be able to test via a LiveCD. Please let us know immediately if this newer 2.6.27 kernel resolves the bug reported here or if the issue remains. More importantly, please open a new bug report for each new bug/regression introduced by the 2.6.27 kernel and tag the bug report with 'linux-2.6.27'. Also, please specifically note if the issue does or does not appear in the 2.6.26 kernel. Thanks again, we really appreicate your help and feedback. ** Tags added: cft-2.6.27 -- Port slow to respond on SiI3512 with sata_sil https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/159521 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 159521] Re: Port slow to respond on SiI3512 with sata_sil
For what its worth, I decided to copy some 10GB of data from my RAID1 drives, over to the drive attached to the PCI card, which is now NOT part of a raid set. I tarred the data up, and ran it through bzip2, which resulted in the system being completely CPU bound (very low- powered CPU), and limiting the speed of the transfer. It took some 6 hours to actually move all the data across, but I got no errors during the copy at all. I then copied the 10GB backup to another directory on the same drive, and this time I get all the same errors as previously reported. Currently estimating that it will take around 1 hour to move the data (with errors, freezes, etc) so much higher basic data rates. Looks like the sata_sil driver and the 3512 run into problems with high load or io rates. -- Port slow to respond on SiI3512 with sata_sil https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/159521 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 159521] Re: Port slow to respond on SiI3512 with sata_sil
Sorry for delay in responding. The live CD has no support for RAID, so in the end I had to completely reinstall with the new Hardy Alpha2 code, which took a lot more time. Unfortunately there was no improvement at all in the symptoms - all the same problems previously described (timeout, device error, HSM violation etc etc) showed up during the install. Progress was so bad that in the end I terminated the install (of the base OS) after about 2 hours, as it was making no headway against the constant flow of disk errors (as seen in the logs accessed via the CTRL-ALT-F4 key). Frustratingly I couldn't find any way to capture those logs, as I didn't seem able to mount a USB key to the installing system - that could have been my lack of knowledge/problem, but annoying all the same. Since this is my main server I can't keep this as a test system just for this problem, so I've had to restore my Gutsy system again. I'm now running on only the two integrated Via SATA controllers in a RAID 1 configuration (rather than RAID 5) to avoid the drive attached to the Silicon Image PCI card. Since I am now nominally not using the 500GB drive attached to the Silicon Image PCI card, I can probably test further suggestions much more easily, as there ought to be no need to install/reimage the server each time, and a live CD ought to be able to get at the Silicon Image controller/drive now. Let me know what more I can do to help.

Hardy Heron Alpha2 was recently released. It contains an updated version of the kernel.

[Bug 159521] Re: Port slow to respond on SiI3512 with sata_sil
FC7 took an eternity to install (over 5 hours) and although I can't be sure (no logs that I could find from the install process), I suspect it was struggling with the same disk freeze problems that I've been experiencing under Ubuntu. When it finally finished installing, I rebooted, and it Kernel oops'd because it couldn't bring the raid array online - another hint that it was having big problems with the disks. At this point I gave up and went to Windows. Which works flawlessly - or at least it does so far ... I'm still throwing files around, but it's certainly looking like the hardware is fine, but that there is a problem somewhere in the Linux support for it. I think I'm out of options on how to move this forward myself now. I need some help please, as I really don't want to have to build this server around Windows! :-) -- Port slow to respond on SiI3512 with sata_sil https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/159521 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 159521] Re: Port slow to respond on SiI3512 with sata_sil
I went back to 7.04 server (feisty) and it behaves the same way, so this doesn't look like something that's new into 7.10 server. Also, thanks to running a s/w raid environment, I have some freedom to swap cabling around to eliminate possible hardware errors. So far I have swapped the drives around, and the errors stay with the drive connected to the PCI sata raid card (eliminating the possibility of this being due to a hardware error in one of the drives). I have also swapped ports on the PCI sata raid card, but this time the errors moved to the other port; which really doesn't indicate much. I think I need to eliminate the possibility of the PCI raid card being faulty next, so I'll try a copy of FC7, and see how that goes, but given the common kernel / driver sources across Linux distros, I suspect I may need to install something like Windows on it to see if the card is really OK or not.

In case it helps, I checked the SMART status of the drives too. Only the drive associated with ata1 has errors in its SMART error log. However, the drive is reporting as healthy, and running a long selftest produced no errors, and no change in the healthy state of the drive according to SMART. I dont know enough about this to understand if the errors in the log are causing the problems I'm seeing, or as a result of them. I've attached the output from running sudo smartctl --all for each of the drives to this post in the hope it will be of use. ** Attachment added: smartctl-all.log http://launchpadlibrarian.net/10261847/smartctl-all.log -- Port slow to respond on SiI3512 with sata_sil https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/159521 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
