I'm guessing you would have seen "SIGNATURE: 9669" in the logs with the new code in that case. That is the only way we should have gotten into probing a port multiplier. > These probes always start with "Probe PROBE_INVALID to PROBE_IDENTIFY" > Why the new code doesn't accept the PROBE_INVALID and skip over it > I don't understand. PROBE_INVALID is a state in the ATA probe state machine. It is where all of the probes start, and where probes end if they have "failed" in the sense that we're not going to continue. The probe messages are intermixed, so you'd have to match them up by the probe peripheral driver instance number (aprobe2, aprobe4, etc.) to see the sequence for one particular device. > After I noticed that the same ports had been probed several times on > achich2 with no apparent end in sight I rebooted. This behavior is > extremely poor. Can you send full dmesg output from the working kernel? It looks like you have some ATAPI devcies on your machine (signature eb14). They would likely be attaching to the da(4) driver if they are disks, and that is a different code path. Thanks, Ken -- Kenneth Merry ken@FreeBSD.ORG
