revert to previous (2.4) way of handling flush cache command
Please try this patch. I applied the patch as specified. gcc3.3.3 complained that cf was defined but not used. The error messages no longer appear. Same probem for me Debian Sid 2.6.6 or 2.6.6-mm1 no problem with 2.6.6-rc3 This error message only appears for my maxtor hard drive (80 go), and not for the IBM one. I'm working on this. Recent flush cache fixes uncovered some more bugs in ide-disk driver and firmware peculiarities of some Maxtor disks. Proper fixes should be available soon. If you want to get rid of these warnings (they are harmless - they mean that disk aborted unknown command - no threat to your data etc.) in the meantime use previously posted patch (and ignore gcc warning about unused variable). *** Bug 2677 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** *** Bug 2678 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** *** Bug 2687 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Created attachment 2846 [details]
rollup patch from Rene Herman
STANDBY on reboot should also be fixed soon. It is needed only on
halt/shutdown to properly flush caches of some disks and prevent fs corruption
and there was no clean way to do it just for halt/shutdown. You can apply 2nd
patch to fix it
(contains 1st patch + 'system_state' patch by Andrew Morton + 'no STANDBY on
reboot' patch by Rene Herman).
oh by '1st patch' I really meant '1st fix' because patches are different (but result is the same) This happens to me with both of my maxtor drives, but the odd things is my CRX-140E Sony CDRW drive(hdc). At boot it tells me something about an interpret(sorry for vaugeness), and my system NEVER boots, the message keeps occurring. I do not know if this is related, but this and the maxtor problem only occur with 2.6.6 |
