irq 19: nobody cared! with siimage and hdparm -X66 -d1

irq 19: nobody cared! with siimage and hdparm -X66 -d1

[Miquel van Smoorenburg]

I got "irq 19: nobody cared!" when using the siimage driver on
2.6.0-test11 and executing hdparm -X66 -d1.

I have the following disks in this machine:

1x maxtor PATA on Intel ICH5 (ide0)
2x maxtor SATA on Intel ICH5 (ide1)
2x maxtor SATA on siimage    (ide2, ide3)

This is the relevant part of the bootlog:

The drives on the siimage controller show a bit less performance
than the drives on the Intel controller:

# hdparm -t /dev/hdc
 Timing buffered disk reads:  64 MB in  1.27 seconds = 50.52 MB/sec
# hdparm -t /dev/hde
 Timing buffered disk reads:  64 MB in  1.42 seconds = 45.11 MB/sec

Because the hde and hdg drives didn't show that DMA was
enabled, I enabled it with hdparm:

quantum:/etc/init.d# hdparm -X66 -d1 /dev/hdg
 
And that resulted in this kernel message:

blk: queue f7dfac00, /dev/hdg:
 setting using_dma to 1 (on)
I/O limit 4095Mb (mask 0xffffffff)
 setting xfermode to 66 (UltraDMA mode2)
 using_dma    =  1 (on)

Disabling IRQ #19

For now, I have rebooted and don't use -X66 -d1. It looks like
DMA is enabled anyway:

# hdparm -I /dev/hdg
ATA device, with non-removable media
        Model Number:       Maxtor 6Y080M0
        Serial Number:      Y3J7GL5E
        Firmware Revision:  YAR51BW0
Standards:
        Supported: 7 6 5 4
        Likely used: 7
Capabilities:
        LBA, IORDY(can be disabled)
        Queue depth: 1
        Standby timer values: spec'd by Standard, no device specific minimum
        R/W multiple sector transfer: Max = 16  Current = 0
        Advanced power management level: unknown setting (0x0000)
        Recommended acoustic management value: 192, current value: 254
        DMA: mdma0 mdma1 mdma2 udma0 udma1 udma2 udma3 udma4 *udma5 udma6
             Cycle time: min=120ns recommended=120ns
        PIO: pio0 pio1 pio2 pio3 pio4
             Cycle time: no flow control=120ns  IORDY flow control=120ns

It even shows "udma5" while the disks on the ICH5 controller show:

        PIO: pio0 pio1 pio2 pio3 pio4

Hmm, udma2, no multiple sector support. I'm beginning to think all
this is nonsense for SATA controllers/disks, since udma2 could
never get 50 MB/sec. Right ?
