2.6.10 sata and ide tape drive bug

2005-01-20 Thread slash
Hi,

I have two machines setup one running a sata HDD and another with a pata HDD
both running 2.6.10
On both of these machines i have a segate STT2A tape drive

both machines are configured identical except the sata has the scsi low level
sata intel driver enabled.

To make the tape drive work i enable the scsi emultaion and the scsi tape drive
support in both kernels 2.4 and 2.6

When i issue tar -cf /dev/st0 /
the sata box kernel panics whlie the pata box uses the tape drive fine.

I was previously using the same options with a 2.4.28 kernel using the scsi
emultaion and the lowlevel sata intel driver and when i issue tar -cf /dev/st0
/ the tape drive worked flawlessly.

I for one cant understand how the config works fine in 2.4 and not in 2.6. I
would assume the libata has a bug as the pata system works fine.

when i run the mt tool to find the status of the tape all kernels / systems show
everything as fine.

I hope posting to this list is the right thing to do.

I have attached both config files if that helps,

the kernel panic - not syncing:fatal exception in interrupt is the message i get
given.

the call trace is rather long with alot of c0 address's
the list under call trace shows ata_output, atapi_output,idescsi_output,
idescso_pc_intr and so onwith hex values after each item... there is alot
to type here if its useful how can i get it to save so i dont have to type
everything?

thanx guys

 Subject: 2.6.10 sata and ide tape drive bug
  To: linux-scsi@vger.kernel.org

Hi,

I have two machines setup one running a sata HDD and another with a pata HDD
both running 2.6.10
On both of these machines i have a segate STT2A tape drive

both machines are configured identical except the sata has the scsi low level
sata intel driver enabled.

To make the tape drive work i enable the scsi emultaion and the scsi tape drive
support in both kernels 2.4 and 2.6

When i issue tar -cf /dev/st0 /
the sata box kernel panics whlie the pata box uses the tape drive fine.

I was previously using the same options with a 2.4.28 kernel using the scsi
emultaion and the lowlevel sata intel driver and when i issue tar -cf /dev/st0
/ the tape drive worked flawlessly.

I for one cant understand how the config works fine in 2.4 and not in 2.6. I
would assume the libata has a bug as the pata system works fine.

when i run the mt tool to find the status of the tape all kernels / systems show
everything as fine.

I hope posting to this list is the right thing to do.

I have attached both config files if that helps,

the kernel panic - not syncing:fatal exception in interrupt is the message i get
given.

the call trace is rather long with alot of c0 address's
the list under call trace shows ata_output, atapi_output,idescsi_output,
idescso_pc_intr and so onwith hex values after each item... there is alot
to type here if its useful how can i get it to save so i dont have to type
everything?

thanx guys
