| rtg_ | kylem: I have 3 that all load i2c_ec, but nonoe of them oops. | 12:17 |
|---|---|---|
| mjg59 | On the vast majority of machines, i2c_ec will never bind | 12:17 |
| mjg59 | So loading it is uninteresting | 12:17 |
| maks_ | BenC we can easily write a blacklist dir in /dev/.initramfs | 12:21 |

| mjg59_ | Oh, wait, hang on. | 01:09 |
| mjg59_ | Sorry, I see what you were doing there. | 01:09 |
| maks_ | BenC qemu test complain about not beeing able to write to ${rootmnt}/etc/modprobe.d/initramfs as ro mounted | 01:11 |
| maks_ | can post the patch if you want | 01:12 |
| BenC | maks_: Ah, right, it's mounted ro until after the init scripts run fsck and such | 01:12 |
| BenC | so maybe there should be a dangling symlink for /etc/modprobe.d/initramfs-blacklist -> /some/tmpfs/initramfs-blacklist | 01:13 |
| BenC | initramfs could create /some/tmpfs/initramfs-blacklist | 01:13 |
| mjg59_ | BenC: It looks astonishingly likely that db2f0f088a056c4ccf9054747169802db2f9ae9a is what broke the i2c_ec stuff | 01:14 |
| mjg59_ | Any idea what dragged that in? | 01:14 |
| maks_ | BenC currently we like to write usplash stuff into /dev/.initramfs so there could be the modprobe.d blacklist there | 01:15 |
| BenC | mjg59_: right, rtg found that out too...that got dragged in either by devres stuff, or to fix some other bug, but I can't recall which now | 01:15 |
| BenC | I should really edit cherry-picks as to why they got picked, especially ones like that | 01:16 |
| mjg59_ | Well, just lose that line | 01:16 |
| BenC | we are still seeing a bug with HPA patch, even reverted back to original ABI breaking code | 01:17 |
| BenC | reverting it just covered up the ata_dev_same_device() failure | 01:17 |
| mjg59_ | BenC: Well, that's not the fix that he committed | 01:17 |
| pkl_ | BenC: is there a reason why c25cfc3ad3cb8cac3474febfe66cff8ee0bfba18a was applied reverting the tifm driver from 0.8 to 0.7? | 01:18 |
| BenC | mjg59_: I'll look at that in a second...if it works with the i2c change reverted, I can maybe get it in | 01:18 |
| BenC | I need to get HPA working | 01:18 |
| mjg59_ | BenC: I can't guarantee that it works, and I recommend not reverting the entire thing | 01:18 |

| mjg59_ | + smbus->adapter.dev.parent = &device->dev; | 01:19 |
| mjg59_ | Delete it | 01:19 |
| BenC | for i2c_ec? | 01:19 |
| mjg59_ | Yes | 01:19 |
| BenC | Ok | 01:19 |
| mjg59_ | You can't legally do that with the acpi in 2.6.20 | 01:19 |
| BenC | mjg59_: back to HPA, there seems to be some 64-bit issue with the lba to sectors code | 01:20 |
| BenC | I can see it on my xeon now | 01:20 |
| BenC | I need to check the values in that function | 01:20 |
| mjg59_ | Ok | 01:21 |

| Mithrandir | and neither your camera (which I presume is mass-storage) nor your mmc reader works correctly? | 06:52 |
| defendguin | correct | 06:53 |
| defendguin | it is most probably mass storage but i can't guarantee that | 06:55 |
| defendguin | i wish i had gotten a chance to test this fix out a few days ago | 06:57 |
| Mithrandir | I think it's too late to fix this now, we might be able to do it in a post-release update | 06:58 |
| defendguin | Mithrandir: i really need to mount this disk | 07:02 |
| defendguin | i used to remember my fstab stuff but its been so long since i needed to | 07:03 |

| Mithrandir | the SD/MMC reader on my x40 seems to work again, at least. | 01:38 |
| Keybuk | I've yet to find a use for the SD/MMC reader | 01:53 |
| Keybuk | since every single device I own has a different profile card | 01:54 |
| Mithrandir | I wish I had a CF reader instead. SD is one of the few I actually don't have. | 01:54 |
| zdzichuBG | so I must be lucky. card reader in my z61t is compatibile with my sistet's Minolta camera | 01:55 |
| Keybuk | the 770 takes a little card that's half the size of the cards the N800 takes | 01:55 |
| Mithrandir | zdzichuBG: my camera uses CF cards, since it's a tad more expensive than the cheap ones you can get. | 01:55 |
| Mithrandir | at least I don't know of any prosumer DSLRs which use !CF. | 01:56 |
| Keybuk | successive sony phones have left me with a small pile of Memory Stick Duo, Memory Stick Pro Duo and now Scandisk M2 cards | 01:56 |
| Keybuk | none of which fit in any other device | 01:56 |
| Mithrandir | yes, I have MS Pro Duo as well, for my old camera. | 01:56 |
| Mithrandir | it's easier just to chuck a 250-thousand-different-kinds-of-cards reader in the bag and use that | 01:57 |
| Keybuk | I just use bluetooth | 01:57 |

| BenC | mjg59, kylem: We need to figure out the correct fix for this | 05:51 |
| mjg59 | Yes. | 05:51 |

| mjg59 | Not trivially. | 05:52 |

| === pmjdebruijn [n=pmjdebru@pmjdebruijn.xs4all.nl] has joined #ubuntu-kernel | ||
| mjg59 | Ah, hang on. Alan at one point suggested doing the resizing after the drive/controller timing had been set up. | 05:53 |
| mjg59 | Can you move the call to... | 05:53 |
| mjg59 | (Let me find this) | 05:53 |
| BenC | let me check... | 05:53 |
| BenC | we should do this for ATAPI, right? | 05:54 |
| mjg59 | Ok, after the call to ata_set_mode() in ata_eh_recover() | 05:54 |
| mjg59 | No, ATAPI isn't a problem | 05:54 |
| kylem | no. | 05:54 |
| mjg59 | Or, rather, I don't think ATAPI devices can implement HPAs | 05:55 |
| kylem | doing HPA on ATAPI devices is illegal. | 05:55 |
| BenC | they should report no hpa support though right? | 05:55 |
| kylem | it won't claim ata_id_hpa_enabled | 05:55 |
| kylem | right | 05:55 |
| BenC | right | 05:55 |
| kylem | - Mandatory when the Host Protected Area feature set and the 48-bit Address feature set are | 05:55 |
| kylem | implemented. | 05:55 |
| kylem | - Use prohibited when the Removable Media feature set is implemented. | 05:55 |
| kylem | - Use prohibited when PACKET Command feature set is implemented. | 05:55 |
| mjg59 | kylem: Can you give that a go? | 05:55 |
| BenC | let me try mjg59's suggestion | 05:56 |
| mjg59 | There's two codepaths where ata_set_mode() gets called, depending on whether the eh code is in use or not | 05:56 |
| mjg59 | It may need adding to both | 05:56 |
| mjg59 | Actually, yeah, it needs adding to both (if it works) | 05:57 |
| mjg59 | But I guess we'll find out | 05:57 |
| kylem | mjg59, i've moved it somewhere myself trying. | 05:57 |
| BenC | mjg59: maybe put it in ata_set_mode? | 05:57 |
| mjg59 | BenC: Could do, but no real need | 05:57 |
| mjg59 | It's trivial to add to both | 05:58 |
| kylem | trying. | 05:58 |
| BenC | recompiling | 06:00 |
| kylem | worked. | 06:00 |
| kylem | mjg59, didn't fail that time. | 06:00 |
| kylem | ah. didn't fail because it didn't execute, fun. | 06:01 |
| kylem | ohhhh. hmm. maybe because hpa_id_enabled wasn't true there. | 06:02 |
| mjg59 | kylem: Where did you add it? | 06:02 |
| kylem | mjg59, after ata_set_mode in bus_probe. | 06:02 |
| mjg59 | kylem: That won't be executed if there's an error handler | 06:03 |
| mjg59 | Put it in ata_eh_recover() | 06:03 |
| BenC | I've put it in both places, rebooting | 06:03 |
| BenC | boots | 06:05 |
| kylem | i still think we should add an avoid_all_hpa_code flag. | 06:05 |
| mjg59 | Does it execute? | 06:05 |
| BenC | but I want to put a printk back in there to make sure it is getting called | 06:05 |
| BenC | kylem: I changed the ignore_hpa=0 to actually do that | 06:05 |
| kylem | at least that way, we don't brownpaperbag the pressed cds completley and utterly. | 06:05 |
| kylem | ok. | 06:06 |
| mjg59 | I can sort of understand sata_nv getting upset if you're executing ata commands before actually making sure the disk and controller timings agree | 06:06 |
| === ivoks [n=ivoks@33-171.dsl.iskon.hr] has joined #ubuntu-kernel | ||
| BenC | it's not getting called | 06:09 |
| BenC | let me post my diff | 06:09 |
| BenC | people.ubuntu.com/~bcollins/libata.diff | 06:11 |
| BenC | I'm thinking about moving the checks for (ata_ignore_hpa && ata_id_hpa_enabled(dev->id) to the top of ata_hpa_resize to clean things up a bit | 06:12 |
| mjg59 | Would also work | 06:13 |
| kylem | ok. | 06:13 |
| mjg59 | BenC: It's not obvious why it's not getting called. You rebuilt the initramfs as well, right? | 06:13 |
| kylem | i have an idea. | 06:13 |
| kylem | we buy everyone scsi disks. | 06:13 |
| kylem | and pretend ATA doesn't exist. :) | 06:13 |
| BenC | yes | 06:13 |
| kylem | ergh. | 06:18 |
| kylem | ok. | 06:19 |
| kylem | i think ata_dev_revalidate is the right place to put it. | 06:19 |
| kylem | since it's called from both the _eh and bus_probe paths. | 06:19 |
| mjg59 | After set_mode? | 06:20 |
| cjwatson | BenC: (is that another ABI bump, BTW?) | 06:21 |
| BenC | ok, it's getting called now | 06:21 |
| BenC | cjwatson: No | 06:21 |
| cjwatson | ok, just checkin' | 06:21 |
| cjwatson | I'm not going to say no if that's what it takes | 06:21 |
| mjg59 | BenC: Getting called and breaking? | 06:22 |
| BenC | mjg59: I need to check that it is actually going down the code path | 06:22 |
| mjg59 | Ok | 06:23 |
| BenC | but the function got called | 06:23 |
| === notts [n=eric@cpe-72-184-186-31.tampabay.res.rr.com] has joined #ubuntu-kernel | ||
| notts | sorry to jump in, but there a major bug with the new updated kernel this morning | 06:25 |
| notts | got error message: error loading os" | 06:26 |
| mjg59 | notts: Yes, it's broken for various people | 06:26 |
| mjg59 | It's being worked on | 06:26 |
| kylem | hey hey. | 06:28 |
| kylem | garzik to the rescue. | 06:28 |
| notts | major thanks, any word on when | 06:28 |
| mjg59 | When it works | 06:30 |
| kylem | WOOOOOO | 06:32 |
| kylem | I WIN | 06:32 |
| rpereira | hi everybody. | 06:32 |
| BenC | mjg59: neither of my drives says they support hpa when ata_resize_hpa() is called | 06:33 |
| kylem | BenC, boot with sata_nv.adma=0 | 06:33 |
| BenC | kylem: with old patch? | 06:33 |
| kylem | ata4.00: ata_hpa_resize 1: sectors = 390721968, hpa_sectors = 390721968 | 06:33 |
| mjg59 | BenC: Hm. Odd. | 06:33 |
| kylem | BenC, yeah | 06:33 |
| kylem | want my defconfig'd kernel instead of rebuilding? | 06:34 |
| mjg59 | kylem: Figures. | 06:34 |
| kylem | yes. | 06:34 |
| kylem | fuck nvidia. | 06:34 |
| kylem | right in the skull. | 06:34 |
| BenC | it doesn't take me long to rebuild libata.ko | 06:34 |
| kylem | ok. | 06:34 |
| BenC | kylem: so should we disable adma by default? | 06:34 |
| kylem | i think so. | 06:34 |
| mjg59 | Fine. Dropping adma just costs us ncq | 06:34 |
| mjg59 | But it's clearly broken in some respect | 06:34 |
| BenC | kylem: can you do a patch for that, and I'll include a patch so that ignore_hpa steers clear of all hpa code? | 06:35 |
| === notts3 [n=eric@cpe-72-184-186-31.tampabay.res.rr.com] has joined #ubuntu-kernel | ||
| BenC | email it to me and I'll test it and prepare a -15.25 | 06:36 |
| kylem | 1sec, trying to figure out if we can shortcircuit adma mode so we can leave it on. | 06:36 |
| BenC | kylem: just default the module param to 0 :) | 06:36 |
| BenC | if people want it they can enable it manually | 06:36 |
| kylem | NCQ is fairly hit or miss too. | 06:36 |
| BenC | do you think making module parm adma=0 by default is enough? | 06:37 |
| kylem | yes. | 06:37 |
| BenC | if that's all that's needed I can do that locally | 06:37 |
| kylem | ok. | 06:37 |
| kylem | it's static int adma_enabled | 06:38 |
| BenC | ok, I'll rebuild a kernel and see if danielk is still around to test | 06:38 |
| cjwatson | any idea when sata_nv.adma was turned on? | 06:38 |
| kylem | cjwatson, recently. | 06:38 |
| cjwatson | nod | 06:38 |
| kylem | commit 382a6652e91b34d5480cfc0ed840c196650493d4 | 06:39 |
| kylem | Author: Robert Hancock <hancockr@shaw.ca> | 06:39 |
| kylem | Date: Mon Feb 5 16:26:02 2007 -0800 | 06:39 |
| kylem | sata_nv: use ADMA for NODATA commands | 06:39 |
| kylem | turning it off wholesale is fine for now. i'll look into a real fix when we have some idle cycles. | 06:39 |
| cjwatson | hmm, git-blame says 2006-10-27 | 06:39 |
| cjwatson | oh, it's only one bit of adma? | 06:39 |
| kylem | yeah. | 06:40 |
| kylem | basically instead of transitioning from adma mode to normal mode, they decided to submit NODATA with ADMA. | 06:40 |
| cjwatson | git log drivers/ata/sata_nv.c doesn't show the commit above? | 06:41 |
| cjwatson | (just trying to find it) | 06:41 |
| kylem | probably came in one of our imports | 06:41 |
| BenC | it was a chunk patch to sync with libata | 06:41 |
| cjwatson | $ git diff-tree -p 382a6652e91b34d5480cfc0ed840c196650493d4 | 06:41 |
| cjwatson | fatal: bad object 382a6652e91b34d5480cfc0ed840c196650493d4 | 06:41 |
| cjwatson | ah | 06:41 |
| BenC | cjwatson: git-diff-tree -p --pretty SHA | 06:41 |
| kylem | cjwatson, git show | 06:41 |
| BenC | cjwatson: ah, you don't have upstream in there | 06:41 |
| BenC | should we just revert that one patch? | 06:42 |
| cjwatson | ah, I have a different tree for that | 06:42 |
| kylem | BenC, testing. | 06:42 |
| BenC | if we can leave adma on for default transactions we can avoid the "my driver performance sucks" crew | 06:42 |
| kylem | yup. | 06:42 |
| kylem | reverts cleanly, testing now. | 06:42 |
| cjwatson | it does say it fixed some timeouts ... | 06:43 |
| kylem | boots. | 06:43 |
| cjwatson | oh, no, maybe not | 06:43 |
| kylem | yeah, the language is murky. | 06:43 |
| BenC | cjwatson: it fixes some previously fixed ones in a different way | 06:44 |
| BenC | from the sound of it | 06:44 |
| mjg59 | Well, worst case is that we revert back to edgy levels of support for that hardware | 06:44 |
| cjwatson | mm | 06:44 |
| cjwatson | can we bonnie++ the resulting system or something? :) | 06:44 |
| mjg59 | BenC: The i2c_ec patch went in, right? | 06:44 |
| kylem | NCQ isn't always a win. | 06:45 |
| BenC | kylem: so reverting that patch with current code works? | 06:45 |
| cjwatson | bit concerned that just booting might be a weak test there | 06:45 |
| BenC | mjg59: yes | 06:45 |
| mjg59 | Excellent, thanks | 06:45 |
| cjwatson | (I don't care about performance, more that it doesn't fall over under load) | 06:45 |
| kylem | BenC, yes in my testing tree (which is .21-rc6) building ubuntu images now | 06:45 |
| cjwatson | mjg59: anything else you know about? | 06:45 |
| cjwatson | of the release-critical ohmygod kind | 06:45 |
| mjg59 | Nothing from me | 06:45 |
| cjwatson | I thought it might be worth an explicit check :) | 06:46 |
| cjwatson | thanks | 06:46 |
| mjg59 | Yeah, I forgot about that one because it got downgraded to medium for some reason | 06:46 |
| mjg59 | Basic problem was just that something we'd ended up pulling in expected the ACPI device semantics from 2.6.21 | 06:47 |
| cjwatson | it was critical when I first saw it | 06:47 |
| mjg59 | I bumped it back up yesterday | 06:47 |
| cjwatson | kylem: can you arrange for as many people on the team as possible who use sata_nv to try this out? | 06:47 |
| kylem | cjwatson, just ping them in #c? | 06:48 |
| kylem | or check the hw db? | 06:48 |
| cjwatson | #c, #distro, distro-team@ | 06:50 |
| kylem | yup. | 06:50 |
| BenC | I'll have kernels built with this in about 30 minutes | 06:51 |
| BenC | i386 and amd64 | 06:51 |
| kylem | ok | 06:52 |
| kylem | BenC, this should be a suitably large hammer for now. I'm going to try and snoop the taskfile and unset ADMA for these commands and submit the patch upstream when i get a bit of free time. | 06:55 |
| BenC | kylem: ok | 06:55 |
| === shawarma [n=sh@atlas.linux2go.dk] has left #ubuntu-kernel [] | ||
| BenC | kylem, mjg59: thanks for the time...maybe we get a suitable kernel for release | 06:56 |
| kylem | heh | 06:56 |
| BenC | at least -15.24 is almost done building to free up the buildd's | 06:57 |
| BenC | builds started | 06:58 |
| cjwatson | let me know when it's ready (by whatever means necessary) and I'll contact Tollef if he isn't around | 06:59 |

| BenC | is palmer the faster machine? | 07:08 |
| kylem | BenC, patch hitting your mailbox. | 07:10 |
| kylem | alternate fix, reverting that commit is fine too though. | 07:10 |
| BenC | I've already got the revert in here and building/preparing :) | 07:11 |

| === jpon [n=jpniane@neu67-3-82-239-80-181.fbx.proxad.net] has joined #ubuntu-kernel | ||
| kylem | i fired the fix upstream since it was so simple to filter. | 07:12 |
| BenC | kylem: your fix will filter into gutsy, so for feisty we'll stick with edgy type performance | 07:12 |
| === kylem nods. | ||
| kylem | BenC, worst case scenario is we fix it right in -updates, with this, everyone should be able to at least boot. | 07:14 |
| === lfittl [n=lfittl@213.129.230.12] has joined #ubuntu-kernel | ||
| cjwatson | sounds like the right decision | 07:16 |
| kylem | with ben's ignore_hpa patch, if this crops up in another controller we aren't able to test on, we should can at least tell them to disable it to get it installed. | 07:17 |
| kylem | but from a cursory glance, i don't think it will be. | 07:17 |
