[-- Attachment #1 --] I have just sent more information to the PR at http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=157397 The short summary (more info in the PR) is: - limiting tags to 31 does not help - disabling NCQ appears to help in initial testing, but warrants more testing - error happens during WRITE_FPDMA_QUEUED, - File system in question is SU+J UFS2 mounted on /usr, and I can for instance "rm -rf /usr/obj" or just log into GNOME and try to open a gnome-terminal to trigger stalls; - Linux uses 31 tags (for different reason) and has no drive quirks, but a controller quirk; for Jeremy's topic #6, regarding the ATI/AMD SB7x0 that I am using, it might be worthwhile investigating the AHCI_HFLAG_IGN_SERR_INTERNAL flag - it gets set by Linux on the SB700 that my computer is using, see ahci_error_intr() in libahci.h - I am not going to interpret that for lack of expertise, but it does affect error handling and appears to ignore a certain condition. Why only my Samsung HDD drive triggers this but not the WD drive, I do not know yet. Hope that helps a bit.
