I just updated libata-dev.git with several new patches, most from Tejun.
I'm still plowing through his big pile o patches, so not done yet.

I agree.

Assuming your patch is applied:

With SCSI=m and SCSI_SATA=y this allows the static enabling of the SATA 
drivers with unwanted effects, e.g.:
- SCSI=m, SCSI_SATA=y, SCSI_ATA_ADMA=y
  -> SCSI_ATA_ADMA is built statically but scsi/built-in.o is not linked 
     into the kernel
- SCSI=m, SCSI_SATA=y, SCSI_ATA_ADMA=y, SCSI_SATA_AHCI=m
  -> SCSI_ATA_ADMA and libata are built statically but 
     scsi/built-in.o is not linked into the kernel,
     SCSI_SATA_AHCI is built modular (unresolved symbols due to missing 
                                      libata)

I do still not see how your proposed patch would have _any_ influence on 
your problem.

Please explain this bug in detail.

> And how did this change alone fix it for you?

I am using Intel 82801EB SATA controller.
2.6.13-rc7-libata1.patch.bz2 worked as PATA when 82801EB was used in a combined mode. 
Does quirk_intel_ide_combined() work effectively?

Thanks,
Haruo

No, this bug reintroduces a problem with SCSI=m.

Which problem do you face?
And how did this change alone fix it for you?

Hi Jeff,

2.6.13- rc7-libata1.patch.bz2 was used. 
A combined mode of ata_piix seems not to work. 
Is the following patches correct?

It appears to be safe with a UP machine at the moment. (Read as: I have been beating it hard for 
over a month with no issues.) SMP is known to have a race which may not be good.

is it still unsafe to use passthru concurrently
to normal disk I/O, as stated earlier?

an other question:

will some "coldplug" be possible with SATA?

I currently may unload the sata module, exchange the disk(s)
and reload the module again. Works file, but instead I want
to exchange a single disk of my LVM system, while all other
disks are still active.

I found some advice, on how to do that with SCSI disks.
Will it be possible with SATA, too?

Dieter.

I just updated libata-dev queue in BitKeeper, to the latest upstream kernel.

No patch yet, I'll post in a day or two.  You can generate your own
patch using Documentation/BK-usage/gcapatch script in the kernel tree.

Here's a summary of the stuff sitting in this testing queue:
* new driver ata_adma (Pacific Digital PATA and SATA)
* new hardware ULi 5281 supported in sata_uli driver
* new hardware VT6421 SATA supported in sata_via driver
* support for PATA ports on Promise SATA cards
* support for newer Promise PATA cards
* ATA passthru (read: SMART support)
* other minor stuff

BK users:

	bk pull bk://gkernel.bkbits.net/libata-dev-2.6

This will update the following files:
