BHW this update solve problem whith SMP on my dual xeon mb I. Before update: 1. Mouse & kb dose't work with SMP kernel; 2. Instead 4 (HT) processors with SMP kernel sytem recognize only 2; 3. Some problem with sata_sil driver for SATALink + HITACHI SATA (HDS722516VLSA80) devices: # hdparm -tT /dev/sda /dev/sda: Timing cached reads: 2288 MB in 2.00 seconds = 1142.46 MB/sec HDIO_DRIVE_CMD(null) (wait for flush complete) failed: Inappropriate ioctl for device Timing buffered disk reads: 176 MB in 3.02 seconds = 58.34 MB/sec HDIO_DRIVE_CMD(null) (wait for flush complete) failed: Inappropriate ioctl for device # hdparm -i /dev/sda /dev/sda: HDIO_GET_IDENTITY failed: Inappropriate ioctl for device II. After bios update: Only 1 & 2 problems solved. Change SATA conroller mode(swith beetwen base & raid mode) coul'd not help. III. In RH9 all ok with old bios version & old driver(kernel module) sii6512.
Adding HDS722516VLSA80 in sata_sil.c blacklist (with quirk SIL_QUIRK_MOD15WRITE) doesn't help... Only speed decreased to 28.34 MB/sec approximately...
Problem went away with the 2.6.11 based kernels.
