IDE DMA-related errors with latest 2.4.20-19.9 kernel
It seems that the release of RH9 updated kernel (2.4.20-19.9) has fixed the
kernel hanging bug (DMA w/ HPT374), although there still seems to be some
problems with DMA with high I/O cases as the attached log file shows. I'm very
happy to get rid of hightech's proprietary driver ...
If you need any more information, please ask.
Thanks for the bug report. However, Red Hat no longer maintains this version of the product. Please upgrade to the latest version and open a new bug if the problem persists. The Fedora Legacy project (http://fedoralegacy.org/) maintains some older releases, and if you believe this bug is interesting to them, please report the problem in the bug tracker at: http://bugzilla.fedora.us/ |
From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.4) Gecko/20030703 Description of problem: It's impossible to install RedHat Linux 9 into a hard-disk which is connected to HPT374 ide-controller when the DMA has not been disabled. Obviously, the system will simply not boot later on (after the installation) if the "ide=nodma" kernel parameter has not been set accordingly. ACPI doesn't seem to matter as it has been tested on and off, as well as local IO-Apic has been disabled as well. The system works fine with Highpoint's own proprietary ide-driver though (DMA enabled). The error message is: "hde: Lost interrupt" (there is simply nothing else) l Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): kernel-2.4.20-8, kernel-2.4.20-18.9 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Try too boot up the system with 2.4.20-18.9, which has been installed on a disk connected to HPT374-controller. 2. 3. Additional info: The hardware in question is: Epox 8K9A3+ motherboard (Via KT400, HPT374-ide (Dual Channel ATA-66/100/133 IDE), Latest v. 13.03.2003 mb bios) AMD Athlon 1400 TB IBM Deskstar 75GXP 45GB HD (IBM-DTLA-307045)
