Public bug reported: Description: Ubuntu natty (development branch) Release: 11.04 Linux nightwalker 2.6.37-11-generic #25-Ubuntu SMP Tue Dec 21 23:42:56 UTC 2010 x86_64 GNU/Linux
At the beginning of December I started experiencing random freezes and overall poor performance to the point when running any application took at least 10 seconds. Writing anything bigger than 5Mb to the HDD was next to impossible. The only solution was to restart the PC but it would happen sooner or later after the reboot. I have tried different things and waited for some updates to the kernel but nothing helped. Today I ran dmesg right after the inital freeze to see this: [ 369.880354] irq 19: nobody cared (try booting with the "irqpoll" option) [ 369.880357] Pid: 0, comm: kworker/0:0 Tainted: P 2.6.37-11-generic #25-Ubuntu [ 369.880358] Call Trace: [ 369.880359] <IRQ> [<ffffffff810d689b>] __report_bad_irq.clone.2+0x2b/0xa0 [ 369.880365] [<ffffffff810d6c8e>] note_interrupt+0x18e/0x1d0 [ 369.880367] [<ffffffff810d7b8d>] handle_fasteoi_irq+0xed/0x120 [ 369.880369] [<ffffffff8100ea82>] handle_irq+0x22/0x40 [ 369.880371] [<ffffffff815c2ad8>] do_IRQ+0x68/0xf0 [ 369.880373] [<ffffffff815baed3>] ret_from_intr+0x0/0x11 [ 369.880374] <EOI> [<ffffffff8132c9a0>] ? intel_idle+0xe0/0x180 [ 369.880377] [<ffffffff8132c97f>] ? intel_idle+0xbf/0x180 [ 369.880380] [<ffffffff8149b8f1>] cpuidle_idle_call+0x91/0x140 [ 369.880383] [<ffffffff8100a266>] cpu_idle+0xa6/0x140 [ 369.880385] [<ffffffff815b440a>] start_secondary+0xf2/0xf4 [ 369.880386] handlers: [ 369.880387] [<ffffffff8140a850>] (ata_bmdma_interrupt+0x0/0x210) [ 369.880390] [<ffffffff8140a850>] (ata_bmdma_interrupt+0x0/0x210) [ 369.880392] [<ffffffff8142e140>] (usb_hcd_irq+0x0/0x90) [ 369.880394] [<ffffffffa0016410>] (ahci_interrupt+0x0/0x110 [libahci]) [ 369.880401] Disabling IRQ #19 [ 398.621534] ata2: lost interrupt (Status 0x51) [ 398.621550] ata2.00: exception Emask 0x10 SAct 0x0 SErr 0x400100 action 0x6 frozen [ 398.621554] ata2.00: BMDMA stat 0x26, BMDMA stat 0x0, BMDMA stat 0x0, BMDMA stat 0x0, BMDMA stat 0x0 [ 398.621557] ata2.00: SError: { UnrecovData Handshk } [ 398.621562] ata2.00: failed command: WRITE DMA EXT [ 398.621565] ata2.00: cmd 35/00:00:00:e4:65/00:04:01:00:00/e0 tag 0 dma 524288 out [ 398.621566] res 40/00:00:00:4f:c2/00:00:00:00:00/00 Emask 0x34 (host bus error) [ 398.621567] ata2.00: status: { DRDY } [ 398.621572] ata2.00: hard resetting link [ 398.970228] ata2.01: hard resetting link [ 399.478318] ata2.00: SATA link up 3.0 Gbps (SStatus 123 SControl 300) [ 399.478327] ata2.01: SATA link down (SStatus 0 SControl 300) [ 399.657687] ata2.00: configured for UDMA/133 [ 399.757281] ata2.00: device reported invalid CHS sector 0 [ 399.757289] ata2: EH complete I have attached the whole dmesg output. ** Affects: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/694825 Title: ata_bmdma crashing at random(?) -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
