mvsas errors in 2.6.36

mvsas errors in 2.6.36

[Thomas Fjellstrom]

Good news and bad news, the current mvsas driver in 2.6.36 seems to work
better than older kernels with my setup (2 port sas + 5 SATA disks). But I
gotten the following messages so far:

I did not unplug a disk, the errors seem to be spurious.

Otherwise though things seem to be working. At least so far. The mv_abort_task
part is very familiar, the older version of this driver would do it right
after attempting to build/activate the md raid5 array that lives on this
controller. Except the controller would lock up, and all drives would become
inaccessible.

I'm going to attempt to grow this array today, so long as the xfs_fsr that I
started doesn't cause the array to fail.

If I keep getting mv_abort_task errors, I'll have to back down to the copy of
the driver I got from Andy Yan. I've managed to patch it up to compile for
2.6.36 just now, I just hope it'll work at least as well as it did with
2.6.34. At the very least I didn't get these errors.

Some background, the disks attached to the card are (5) Seagate 7200.12 1TB
disks, using SAS->SATA cables. Machine is a amd64 Phenom II X4 810 w/4G
ram running debian sid and a vanila 2.6.36 kernel. The card is a
AOC-SASLP-MV8, according to lspci:

04:00.0 SCSI storage controller: Marvell Technology Group Ltd. MV64460/64461/64462 System Controller, Revision B (rev 01)

I just hope the raid5 reshape I'm about to do doesn't crap its pants because
of the errors above.

I'd like to help test any fixes or changes if needed. Let me know.

Thanks again.

Re: mvsas errors in 2.6.36

[Audio Haven]

Hello Thomas,

I'm seeing similar errors on 2.6.36-rc3 (which should have the same
mvsas driver).
When copying lots of data over samba to a sofware raid6 on top of
mvsas, my samba connection stalls and the following is reported:

drivers/scsi/mvsas/mv_sas.c 1632:mvs_query_task:rc= 5

No data is lost and raid never breaks, but this is a nuisance. The
above can be reproduced when doing lot's of IO to mvsas independent of
samba: e.g. a large local file copy to mvsas or even rm -rf of large
subdirectory in xfs can trigger it. Then these operations become
terribly slow.

Best regards,

Frederic Vanden Poel

Still no fatal errors, but the problem is still happening regularly. It causes 
a pause in disk io of a couple seconds at least. Really quite annoying.

One thing thats got me wondering, is could this be a power issue? It almost 
seems like (from the messages) that a single drive (any drive) is freaking 
out, and returning an error that probably shouldn't happen (no CHS 0?), which 
could mean the drive is underpowered and the firmware is flipping out. I'm not 
entirely sure. The system has a 750w decent quality Antec power supply. The 
total power use of the system shouldn't come over half that (phenom II x4 810 
cpu, gigabyte ma790fxtud5p mb, low profile nvidia 9400GS gpu, 8 sata hdds, 3 
fans, etc). I'm /mostly/ sure the 12v rails are spread out evenly, but I have 
yet to make absolutely sure.

But then it doesn't seem as if the root drives are ever flipping out. Theres 
two 500GB Seagate 7200.12 drives md raid1'ed on the motherboard's (SB750) sata 
II controller. They work fine, no messages regarding them at all the entire 
time. However I get frequent and repeated messages from all drives on the 
mvsas based controller.

So color me stumped.

After the mvsas update in 2.6.35 this started happening to me as well; 
at least its better than the previous state - not working.. ;-) However, 
after rolling a new 2.6.35 with the following fix that is queued up for 
the upcoming 2.6.35 and 2.6.36 stable releases, they seem to have 
dissapeared - 3 days and counting.

The fix is queued up for the next 2.6.36 and 2.6.35 stable point-releases.

Made absolute sure. I had been worrying that I was overloading one of the 
rails on the PSU, but it turns out that it isn't a multi 12v rail PSU after 
all. The box and advertising says it is, but the electronics inside all say 
its a single 12v rail device.

Ahah. I wonder how I missed that when I first read it. I'll have to give the 
stable .36 kernel a try. Thanks!

If you tried v2.6.36 or v2.6.36.1 like you said you are not getting the 
above mentioned commit.
It's already applied only in 2.6.37-rc1..rc4
What version have you tried exactly?

2.6.36, and from the machine itself:

root@boris:~# uname -a
Linux boris 2.6.36.1+ #2 SMP Thu Dec 2 00:37:57 MST 2010 x86_64 GNU/Linux

There are fewer errors it seems though. Its been a few hours and theres only 
one set, rather than one every 30-60 minutes or so.

I pulled 2.6.36.1 directly from the kernel.org 2.6.36.y git repo, and in case 
you're wondering, the extra patches giving it the + is the group scheduling 
patch. Otherwise its a vanila 2.6.36.1.

I see I misread a message again. I checked the 2.6.36.1 release changelog and 
it mentions a "libsas fix ncq mixing with non ncq" changeset.

http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-2.6.36.y.git;a=commit;h=82fa8bea5ecadf3c2278f677b500905f9ddb7ac0

That seems to be part of 2.6.36.1, so if theres a different patch that I'm 
missing, please let me know.

Thank you :)

So after about 32 hours of uptime theres been 36 separate events. Each spits
out similar messages as above, and each comes with a noticeable pause while
the drive is reset.

There are a number of possible reasons that I'm still having issues:
 - I managed to mess up the git checkout
 - My problem isn't related to the fix
 - The fix doesn't cover all cases of the problem it meant to fix

I'm not certain which of them it is, I'd be more inclined to think I messed up
the checkout, as I did patch something in, but the patches were completely
unrelated and shouldn't have affected the scsi or ata systems at all. At this
point I'm just grasping at straws.

In case my card is somehow different than expected, I'll paste the lspci info
for it: (AOC-SASLP-MV8)

Its installed in a Phenom II X4 810 based system with a 790FX/SB750 chipset,
8G DDR3 1333 RAM, 6 1TB Seagate 7200.12 SATAII drives connected to the
card via sas->sata breakout cables, and a couple 4 drive SATA hotswap bays.
There are also two Seagate 7200.12 500G drives hooked up to the motherboard
SATA controller. The system is powered via an Antec Neopower Blue 650W PSU
which is probably only half loaded. System also has a discreet gfx card, but its
a low end, low profile, fanless card that takes up next to no power.

I'm still willing to help test any fixes for the mvsas driver on this card.

Thank you.

The controller is reporting a phy ready state change, which is why you see
the unplug notice.

Can you enable SCSI_SAS_LIBSAS_DEBUG and see if libsas reports anything
before the abort?

You should be able to turn on in your kernel config:

Device Drivers
  SCSI device support
   SCSI Transports
    Compile the SAS Domain Transport Attributes in debug mode

Thanks,
David

Hi, I've done as you requested.

here's all of the output from the first (and currently only) event:

I commented out that return, and am waiting for another event.. But this
time instead of rebooting, I just rmmod'ed the driver and modprobed it,
and got the following messages, some of which don't seem quite right
(to me at least):

When I see another event, I'll paste it, and then reboot, and see if it
happens the same after a fresh reboot (as this test isn't quite
equivalent to the last test).

Now given I know next to nothing about SAS and SATA controllers,
this is probably a bit presumptuous of me, but I've been thinking about
this for a while. Assuming for a moment that it isn't a hardware problem
(that is, my card, drives, motherboard or cables are not contributing),
then somehow the driver is not handling something entirely correctly.
At some point the card is getting a command it does not like, or can't
handle properly when connected to SATA disks. Possibly its passing
through a SAS or SCSI command to SATA disks that don't know how to handle
it, and decide to completely ignore the command.

That of course it just my best (likely incorrect) guess as to what could
be happening. Please correct me if I'm off base.

At any rate those messages from rmmoding the old driver, and modprobing
the new one are strange. Its finding the drive on each port just fine,
but then immediately fails the xfrmode command, and decides to reprobe
the port, and for some reason decides to connect in 1.5Gbps mode rather
than the native 3Gbps.

[Jack] Do all the drives discoverd? There are still commands timeout, maybe the disks need more time to response, or something
wrong with the driver, I'm not sure.

All drives come up. That last set of logs is something that happens once
or twice an hour while running. I just rebooted again to see what
difference the change makes with a fresh startup. So far it seems that
the controller is running properly in SATA II/3Gbps mode after the reboot.

Just to contrast what the kernel reports in the two scenarios:
rmmod+modprobe:
sas: DOING DISCOVERY on port 0, pid:7283
drivers/scsi/mvsas/mv_sas.c 1388:found dev[0:5] is gone.
sas: sas_ata_phy_reset: Found ATA device.
ata15.00: ATA-8: ST31000528AS, CC34, max UDMA/133
ata15.00: 1953525168 sectors, multi 0: LBA48 NCQ (depth 31/32)
ata15.00: qc timeout (cmd 0xef)
[snip mvsas reset]
sas: sas_ata_phy_reset: Found ATA device.
sas: sas_to_ata_err: Saw error 2.  What to do?
sas: sas_ata_task_done: SAS error 2
ata15.00: failed to IDENTIFY (I/O error, err_mask=0x100)
sas: STUB sas_ata_scr_read
ata15: limiting SATA link speed to 1.5 Gbps
ata15.00: limiting speed to UDMA/133:PIO3

fresh boot:
sas: DOING DISCOVERY on port 0, pid:312
drivers/scsi/mvsas/mv_sas.c 1388:found dev[0:5] is gone.
sas: sas_ata_phy_reset: Found ATA device.
ata9.00: ATA-8: ST31000528AS, CC34, max UDMA/133
ata9.00: 1953525168 sectors, multi 0: LBA48 NCQ (depth 31/32)
ata9.00: configured for UDMA/133

This seems to happen on all ports. As does my original issue, though it
(the original issue) doesn't happen to all ports at the same time, rather
events seem to randomly happen, to one or more ports at random times.

As you can see, the drive are 1TB Seagate SATAII drives. They are setup
in a md-raid 5 array. Luckily these events don't bubble any errors up
the stack causing a rebuild.

Even after the reboot it still happens, though with that change, it /seems/
as if the pause is gone, but I can't be sure yet.

[Jack] Yes , once the host enter error handle , the scsi core will hold on the host(not sen IOs to the host as you see pause utill 
 the error are corrected). The main reason of the host go into error host is there are commands have no response utill the command
timer timeout, this maybe the disks need more time or the host lost interupt or some other reason.  You may need to change disks
and host part by part to see what cause the command timeout.

After one year of mvsas troubles, I can finally say that 2.6.37-rc4
fixed all of my mvsas issues. I have been stress testing 2 machines
for days and can't trigger the usual mvsas issues (nexus errors and
unplug notices) anymore.

In the past, on one system all 8 1TB drives of 2 different brands
(Hitachi & Samsung) on a Supermicro AOC-SASLP-MV8 gave me random
errors, such as unplug notices. Large file copies over samba stalled
or were aborted. This could easily be triggered by doing 1 hour of
large IO.

On a second system, newer 1.5 TB drives gave me almost no issues. I
had to stress much longer before something appeared in the log. Both
machines have identical motherboards and same kernel versions. So my
suspicion some of the older 1 TB drives were bad is now confirmed.

With 2.6.37-rc4, only the real faulty drives are now reported in dmesg
instead of ALL drives after waiting long enough. I found one drive had
12 uncorrectable sectors according to smart, while another drive
always reported DriveStatusError under heavy load. These two drives
were always slowing down the array. After removong them from the RAID6
software raid, speed is now stable.

On the second system with all good drives, the nexus errors and unplug
notices are completely gone.

Thanks to everyone who helped making mvsas stable as it finally works!

Best regards,

Audio Haven (Frederic Vanden Poel)

Did you include smartctl reading under load as well, does that now work 
reliably?

I've had my AOC-SASLP-MV8 lying in a box for about a year because I just 
gave up trying to get it to work, would be very welcome news to see it 
working in 2.6.37.

The changes made, are they backportable to 2.6.32 by any chance?

Well so far I see errors from 4 of my 6 disks since I rebooted 30 hours ago. 
And in the past I've seen these errors come from all disks. I'm more inclined 
to believe its some kind of handling issue than that all of those drives are 
in some way bad. Especially since that older driver I got from Andy Yan did 
not suffer from any of these issues. Of course it had other problems, like 
hotswap oopsing the kernel, but I almost never use hotswap, so it was never an 
issue for me.

Now I'm not sure its related, but I do see this:
[  342.353646] hrtimer: interrupt took 61135 ns
in my dmesg. But that really isn't that long of a pause least not by human 
standards. And theres only the one. It happens once just after boot up, and 
then never again (I assume because at bootup the machine is starting up 4 kvm 
VMs /at the same time/).

Hello Mikael,

smartctl reporting seems to work fine while xfs_fsr is defragmenting
xfs on top of the raid6 software raid + lvm2:

# for disk in /dev/sd[c-j]; do  smartctl -T permissive -s on -A
$disk|grep Raw_Read_Error_Rate ; done
  1 Raw_Read_Error_Rate     0x000f   100   100   051    Pre-fail
Always       -       2
  1 Raw_Read_Error_Rate     0x000f   100   100   051    Pre-fail
Always       -       0
  1 Raw_Read_Error_Rate     0x000b   086   086   016    Pre-fail
Always       -       4587581

No issues appear in dmesg. Notice the difference in Hitachi disks
(very high numbers, likely the actual raw error rate before error
correction, both are Hitachi HDT721010SLA360) vs Samsung disks (only
the unrecoverable, SAMSUNG HD103SI -> they lie, shouldn't be named
'raw').

This appears to have been the problem I was having after adding in the 
PCI ids for the HighPoint 2720s.  So far I've been running tests on 
2.6.37-rc4+ for the past day without any device errors which is a good 
sign.

Been following this discussion and wondering if you have
finally found a solution to this problem?

Also, have you considered this might be a heat problem with
the card?  That particular Supermicro card as a large heat
sink on the Marvell chip and during operation I've noticed
it gets quite hot.  Perhaps you can try running a fan over
the card and re-running your tests to rule this out.
