Description Andi.K 2009-05-06 17:23:49 UTC

Hi folks!

I have an HP Omnibook 500 (Pentium 3) running Debian/GRML with a SIL 3512 PCMCIA SATA controller and a Samsung HD753LJ SATA drive.


During bootup, there is a dmesg-error:

[   11.729613] sata_sil 0000:02:00.0: cache line size not set.  Driver may not function




After bootup, "hdparm -t /dev/sda" gives the following dmesg errors:

Adding the slow_down=1 module option removes these errors, but disk speed drops from 70MB/s to 18MB/s

I tried different kernels (2.6.28, 2.6.29) and different eSATA cables. I even connected the drive directly to the controller, i.e. without external enclosure, barely with a 50cm SATA-eSATA cable and power supply. Didn't help.

Also tried to connect the drive when the computer was powered off and then power it up. Didn't help.

Comment 1 Tejun Heo 2009-05-08 23:38:22 UTC

Your controller and hard drive are seeing link layer miscommunications.  Most likely cabling, power or shielding problem.

Comment 2 Andi.K 2009-05-11 10:19:19 UTC

I already tried different cables and even bought a short (50cm) high quality eSATA2 cable - didn't help.

Proper shielding should be achieved through the eSATA-cable and the shielding of the 2 eSATA ports. 


Regarding Power - I tried 2 different PSU's for the drive (the one that came with the external enclosure and another one from a SATA/IDE-USB-Converter) - didn't help.

Both - the PSU of the laptop and the PSU of the drive are plugged into the same power distributor, but not with 3-wire-cables, i.e. the ground pin is unused. This is by design.

Could a ground loop be the cause?


The pcmcia controller is SATA1 and the drive SATA2 with NCQ. I tried to force it to SATA1 via jumper - didn't help.



What other causes are possible?

Comment 3 Tejun Heo 2009-05-11 23:25:49 UTC

Hmmm.... For SATA, there doesn't need to be a common ground but SATA is very susceptible to all kinds of electro magnetic interferences.  My knowledge of electronics is very limited and don't have much idea what's going on in your laptop but it definitely is a signal quality problem from SATA POV.  Maybe the pcmcia card has quality issues, maybe the pcmcia slot receives too much EMI from other components or the power going into the controller is somehow degraded, or whatnot.  :-(

Comment 4 towerlexa 2009-05-12 06:27:06 UTC

Maybe i could help a little bit for this issue. I have the Delock eSata PCMCIA Adapter too (with 2 eSataports).

I have the problem, that the transfer is very slow. 

The bus scanning (if i connect the device) is successful.

Here are some details from scanning, and working with the device:

I hope this helps for analysis. Maybe it is the eSata Card, but the same card is running fine under Redhat ( i don't know the version in the moment, because it ist the Laptop fron another colleague)
My laptop is a Lenovo Thinkpad T61.

Comment 5 Tejun Heo 2009-05-12 07:18:58 UTC

The slow transfer is probably from CLS not being set.  Can you attach the output of "lspci -nnnvvvxxx" as root?

Comment 6 Andi.K 2009-05-12 07:53:59 UTC

I tried with Kernel 2.6.18 meanwhile... same issues.

To sum it up: hdparam -t gives exceptions in kernel log that disappear with sata_sil module option slow_down=1. But this lowers read performance from 70MB/s down to 17MB/s

Regarding CLS - I tried "setpci -s 02:00.0 CACHE_LINE_SIZE=08" according to http://forum.ubuntuusers.de/topic/esata-ueber-pcmcia-mit-ultron-us200-sata-sil-/

It didn't help with the transfer issues but lspci reports a CLS of 32KBytes now.

Comment 7 Andi.K 2009-05-12 07:57:36 UTC

32Bytes, not 32KBytes, sorry ;)

But what about the Latency of 64. Sounds pretty high...

And: could IRQ sharing be the cause for the transfer issues? I tried kernel options noacpi, pci=noacpi, noapic, nolapic without success.

Output from "lspci -nnnvvvxxx" as root

As requested from Tejun Heo, i attach the Output from the "lspci -nnnvvvxxx" command as root. I hope it is useful. Currently i have not attached my harddisk at the computer.

Thanks and Regards
Axel

Comment 9 towerlexa 2009-05-12 08:15:28 UTC

By the way,

i'm using the following eSata-card:

Delock PCMCIA Adapter CardBus zu 2x eSATA
http://www.delock.de/produkte/gruppen/PCMCIA/Delock_PCMCIA_Adapter_CardBus_zu_2x_eSATA_61618.html

Comment 10 Tejun Heo 2009-05-21 02:29:34 UTC

Andi, the slow transfer you're seeing is from the frequent errors.  Errors take some time to recover so transfer rate plummets if there are errors.  I'm afraid there isn't much which can be done from driver side.  :-(

towerlexa, can you please try "setpci -s 16:00.0 CACHE_LINE_SIZE=16"?

Thanks.

Comment 11 towerlexa 2009-05-21 10:00:33 UTC

Tejun,

yes of course. I'll try it next week. It is possible, that the driver isn't running fine in my current kernel, or is my PCMCIA-Card the wrong for *buntu?

What's could be the next steps, if the "setpci" command is succesful?

Thanks in advance
Axel

Comment 12 Tejun Heo 2009-05-22 01:17:59 UTC

It's highly unlikely that the problem has anything to do with which distro you're using.  If setting CLS resolves the issue, I guess we'll have to ask around who should be responsible for setting it.  I think it falls on pci or pc-card code but it could be that sata_sil should do it.

Thanks.

successful connection without further failures from pcmcia card

This morning i tried to set the CACHE_LINE_SIZE as described in your bugentry:

> towerlexa, can you please try "setpci -s 16:00.0 CACHE_LINE_SIZE=16"?

After this the harddisk and the eSata Card is working fine! I copied with rsync a lot of files to the harddisk, which is connected via the eSata-PCMCIA-Express Card.

I copied round about 15-30GB of bigger and smaller files to the disk and the issue does not occur again (today).

so i think we could say, that the issue do not occur with the CACHE_LINE_SIZE setting.

Do you agree with this?

Comment 14 Tejun Heo 2009-05-26 13:07:30 UTC

Started a thread on linux-pci mailing list.

  http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.pci/4418

Comment 15 Andi.K 2009-06-04 10:14:46 UTC

I tried the SATA card with the same cable and same HDD in another Laptop meanwhile (Thinkpad X61) -> no errors :(

Could it be a plain hardware issue? The HP Laptop I want to use the card with is pretty old (Pentium 3, 440BX chipset, Texas Instruments PCI1410 PCMCIA controller)

Whether I set the CLS, does not seem to matter. But the " sata_sil 0000:02:00.0: Applying R_ERR on DMA activate FIS errata fix" message disappears when I set the CLS and then unload and reload sata_sil kernel module.

Comment 16 Tejun Heo 2009-06-05 01:22:41 UTC

Andi, yeah, your problem seems like a hardware problem.  I can't think of anything the driver can do differently.  :-(

Comment 17 Andi.K 2009-09-09 17:34:42 UTC

Hi Tejun,

I have news: installed Windows XP SP3 into another partition and - guess what... no probs! stable transfer of 70..80MB/s. Also between SATA drives - no issues.

So, at least, the windows driver actually does something differently...

Comment 18 Tejun Heo 2009-09-14 13:59:18 UTC

Hmmm... interesting.  Is there a way to dump PCI registers from windows?  It would be interesting to compare what we're doing differently.

Comment 19 Dominik Brodowski 2010-03-06 14:16:22 UTC

There are some PCI_CACHE_LINE_BYTES improvements in 2.6.33 -- see, most notably ac1aa47b131416a6ff37eb1005a0a1d2541aad6c. Might this have helped for your use case?

Comment 20 Tejun Heo 2010-03-09 05:59:58 UTC

I'm quite doubtful that the patch would help but well no harm in giving a shot.  Thanks.
