As for me, it looks what ata code is not correctly handling more then one ata controller. If I set in bios compatible mode, and I have only P-ATA+ S-ATA, everything works fine, I can boot in verbose mode, no spurious interrupts at all. If I set in bios as bios default Enchanced mode for S-ATA then I still can boot in verbose mode, I see plenty of spurious interrupts on ata2 and ata3 controllers, but system is still continues booting. If I set enchanced mode for S-ATA + P-ATA I cannot boot either in verbose mode or either in normal mode. System gets stuck forever ( or at least for long time ) after I see: "Mounting root from ufs:ad8s3a". and if I boot then in verbose mode, I see nonstopable spurious interrupts on ata2, ata3, ata4 and ata5. This is also could explain, why 5.2.1 is still stable with 4 ide drives, and continuesly freezing or panicing with 6 ( or more I guess ) ide drives. and as well why for some people configuration is working, either they use 4 drives not on all different channels, but some of them maybe on same channel ( again my guess ). ----- Original Message ----- From: "Elliot Finley" <lists@efinley.com> To: "Alexander Mueller" <alex@6by9.org>; <freebsd-current@freebsd.org> Sent: Saturday, March 20, 2004 5:29 PM Subject: Re: system lockup - ata related and spurious interrupts > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Alexander Mueller" <alex@6by9.org> > To: <freebsd-current@freebsd.org> > Sent: Friday, March 19, 2004 6:26 PM > Subject: system lockup - ata related and spurious interrupts > > >> I can't offer you any help but at least I can tell you that I'm >> experiencing exactly the same two problems: TIMEOUT - WRITE_DMA >> when hyperthreading is enabled and inability to reboot or power >> off when hyperthreading is disabled.
