FWIW, there's another report of this http://marc.info/?l=linux-ide&m=134995465614435&w=2 and it is on 64-bit while Phillip's is 32-bit. Adding Anton and a couple more people to CC. From Anton's disassembly I get: Ä 2.703078Ü Code: 01 00 00 00 f6 43 10 10 74 0a 41 89 c7 43 8d 0c 3f 41 d3 e6 41 0f b6 bd e1 02 00 00 e8 ce 74 0f 00 41 80 bd e1 02 00 00 3f 77 44 <0f> b7 40 10 41 f7 d6 44 21 73 10 4d 63 ff 42 89 44 fb 04 48 89 All code ======== 0: 01 00 add %eax,(%rax) 2: 00 00 add %al,(%rax) 4: f6 43 10 10 testb $0x10,0x10(%rbx) 8: 74 0a je 0x14 a: 41 89 c7 mov %eax,%r15d d: 43 8d 0c 3f lea (%r15,%r15,1),%ecx 11: 41 d3 e6 shl %cl,%r14d 14: 41 0f b6 bd e1 02 00 movzbl 0x2e1(%r13),%edi 1b: 00 1c: e8 ce 74 0f 00 callq 0xf74ef 21: 41 80 bd e1 02 00 00 cmpb $0x3f,0x2e1(%r13) 28: 3f 29: 77 44 ja 0x6f 2b:* 0f b7 40 10 movzwl 0x10(%rax),%eax <-- trapping instruction 2f: 41 f7 d6 not %r14d 32: 44 21 73 10 and %r14d,0x10(%rbx) 36: 4d 63 ff movslq %r15d,%r15 39: 42 89 44 fb 04 mov %eax,0x4(%rbx,%r15,8) 3e: 48 rex.W 3f: 89 .byte 0x89 And although I cannot generate the exact code here, building drivers/ata/pata_acpi.c locally gives only one instruction like the trapping one (thankfully, function is short enough): sall %cl, %eax # tmp92, tmp93 orl %eax, 16(%rbx) # tmp93, acpi_6->gtm.flags jmp .L30 # .LVL46: .L29: .loc 1 151 0 movzwl 16(%rax), %eax # t_12->cycle, t_12->cycle <--- .LVL47: .loc 1 152 0 leal (%r12,%r12), %ecx #, tmp97 which could mean that ata_timing_find_mode() might be returning NULL on those systems (t is in %(r|e)ax in both oopses and the 0x10 offset points to ata_timing->cycle).

I've applied your patch and the kernel now finds my hard drive and the logs (pasted below) have a couple of warnings generated by the patch. So if I've understood correctly then your theory that ata_timing_find_mode() is returning NULL is correct.

Right, so we know what exactly happens and I think we have the right people on CC who can make sense of why it happens. If I'd be to guess, this is most probably a BIOS bug (what else?! :-)) which the pata_acpi code is not ready to handle. Btw, Jeff, AFAICT, libata code should the very least catch this situation so that we know. Patch for this below. From a quick look there a couple of drivers which do not check ata_timing_find_mode()'s retval and I guess at least issuing a warning in such situations could be helpful with future issues. However, I don't know how chatty this warning could become and whether this is the right approach and not auditing all users is better. What you can do, Phillip, is check whether some other specific PATA driver supports your hardware and enable it instead of PATA_ACPI. What does lspci on the box say? Or rather 'lspci -v' for more details. You can also send dmesg from the box. Thanks. -- From: Borislav Petkov <bp@alien8.de> Date: Sun, 21 Oct 2012 18:49:08 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] libata: Warn when unable to find timing descriptor based on xfer_mode ata_timing_find_mode could return NULL which is not checked by all low-level ATA drivers using it and cause a NULL ptr deref.

Right, as it looks above, pata_ali should be able to support your IDE interface, so you might not be needing the pata_acpi thing after all. So yes, blacklisting it and verifying that your system still operates normally would be something to do. If it does, you could also build a kernel with pata_acpi disabled (that is, provided you build your own kernels). HTH.

The crash is still a bug. It needs chasing down.

Yes, ata_timing_find_mode gives NULL, we found that out.

In this configuration it works (and using pata_amd on second box), but it is not a good solution for distro kernel. And especially for distro installer kernel wich should support as more hardware as it possible. > From the looks of it, yours should be supported by sata_nv so that you > don't need to use pata_acpi at all. It seems that more special modules should be loaded before pata_acpi, but it loads first.

Judging by 70cd071e4ecc06c985189665af75c108601fd5a3, I think we should involve Tejun into this. @Tejun: so basically there are two people with oopses when using pata_acpi because pacpi_set_dmamode queries xfer mode with adev->dma_mode = 0x0 and ata_timing_find_mode returns NULL (presumably a BIOS bug, I'd say). More details if you follow the thread here: http://marc.info/?l=linux-ide&m=135073445731432 I don't know how to fix this since if BIOS gives xfer_mode 0, how can each pata controller find its max mode? Sure, we can always fall back to 0x0 but that is the slowest and not necessarily optimal. One other possibility could be to load chipset-specific drivers first and pata_acpi only as a last resort but I don't know whether this is doable at all. Thanks. Hi, I see this crash on pc with ASUS A8N-E board (about half of boot attempts). But only if both pata_acpi and pata_amd are loaded... I've disabled pata_amd and I'm not able to reproduce this (tried 10 reboots) if only pata_acpi is used.

Can you catch the oops and upload it, a readable photo from a digicam suffices too, as long as the oops is complete. Thanks. Created attachment 84521 [details] crash on A8N-E not scaled image (~2MiB) available at http://janc.net.pl/DSC_1062.jpg Ok, looks like the same issue. You could try the debugging patch in comment #14 but I'll go ahead and guess that it'll say pacpi_set_dmamode: ata_timing_find_mode gives NULL; adev->dma_mode: 0x0 on your system too. Thanks. sure, i'll put info when build is finished. btw: I forgot to mention that I don't have any pata drives in that pc. Hello

Not two. We have two boxes in our office (about 20 boxes) and more then
ten reports from our users (only from early adopters yet). It seems
that this problem doesn't exists when someone build kernel for his own
box, but will be triggered very often when 3.6 will be wide used distro
kernel.

If you build the drivers into the kernel the link order ensures the generic drivers execute last so the native driver will already have been used. When loading modules it is expected that the distribution is smart enough to get this right. So the built in case is covering up the failure case because the code never gets executed, Alan just to confirm.. [ 5.004024] pacpi_set_dmamode: ata_timing_find_mode gives NULL; adev->dma_mode: 0x0 [ 5.770251] pacpi_set_dmamode: ata_timing_find_mode gives NULL; adev->dma_mode: 0x0 I'm also getting this with the 3.6 kernel, it's comming from initrd which seems to be using dracut.

crash on asus m2n32_sli_deluxe
crash on 3.7 rc-3 too. Asus M2N32-SLI Last working kernel was 3-5.x Re-Compiled ubuntu mainline kernel without enabling "ATA-ACPI Support" then i was able to boot the kernel without the freeze. Unfortunaly none IDE HDD's works then. You could try enabling the platform-specific pata driver for your system and don't compile pata_acpi at all. Until libata folks fix this properly, that is... Thanks. On Wed, Oct 24, 2012 at 11:57:46AM +0100, Alan Cox wrote:

Ok, it looks like this would take a while to fix.
Alan, what is your suggestion for a proper fix, uncomment XFER_PIO_SLOW
and drop to it with a big warning that ACPI is giving botched
information on those chips and people should try using the
platform-specific driver if they want better/optimal speeds?
Thanks.

Unfortunatly distribution dudes will have big problems when they release the kernel for the masses, they can't just disable IDE support at all. Why this problems appeaers now in the kernel, previous ones worked pretty fine.

There is no reason ACPI can't return pure PIO answers. If it does however then the DMA mode setting call should not be made by the core libata code. Lots of our ATA driver code relies upon that so if it's actually what is happening that is what needs fixing.

So a 30 second glance says that the problem is that you seem to have dma_mode uninitialised as zero which is bogus. That means either ata_acpi_gtm_xfermask broke (it should have set the bits to 0xFF if no mode is found), ata_dma_enabled is broken, or pacpi_qc_issue got called before pacpi_port_start (which seems wildly unlikely) Needs someone to go and dump the relevant values in the right places and see what is breaking in the pata_acpi setup logic. Alan Hi, I did some bisecting (10 successful boots == good) and got this: 30dcf76acc695cbd2fa919e294670fe9552e16e7 is the first bad commit commit 30dcf76acc695cbd2fa919e294670fe9552e16e7 Author: Matthew Garrett <mjg@redhat.com> Date: Mon Jun 25 16:13:04 2012 +0800 libata: migrate ACPI code over to new bindings Now that we have the ability to directly glue the ACPI namespace to the driver model in libata, we don't need the custom code to handle the same thing.

Agreed -- though the WARN_ONCE() will at least give us trivially better poops. Jeff @Szymon Janc: useful bisection, thanks! The problem I see is: During init time, identify command needs to be sent; pacpi_qc_issue is invoked, and if the chipset can not set timing independently for each drive, and the qc is not for the current drive, dma mode will be set for the target device if ata_dma_enabled returns true; At this time, ata_device->dma_mode is still un-initialized as 0, but ata_dma_enabled would treat this as valid, and the ata_timing table doesn't handle mode 0, so we get NULL. This problem only occurs when processing identify command. So I think we should init ata_device->dma_mode to 0xff when we are to reset the drive, and the real value will get set in ata_set_mode afterwards. This way, when pacpi_qc_issue is invoked, it will not attempt to set dma mode for the device. And for Szymon's bisect, I think the 'offending' commit actually fixed a problem of pata_acpi(maybe a long standing problem). And due to this fix, pata_acpi module triggered this bug. In previous kernels(pre the 'offending' commit Szymon bisected), the acpi_port_start function will always fail due to ap->acpi_handle is NULL, the reason is showed in the following call sequence: ata_host_start ap->ops->port_start -> pacpi_port_start -> where ap->acpi_handle is used ata_host_register ata_associate_acpi -> where the ap->acpi_handle is assigned So in previous kernels, pata_acpi module will always fail to init the controller, effectively hiding this bug.

Would be also great to see it in stable :) Tested-by: Szymon Janc <szymon@janc.net.pl> Hi, Any progress with getting Aaron's patch upstream (and 3.6.x)? BR Szymon Janc Created attachment 87661 [details]
Fix ata_dma_enabled
Hi all,
After another thought, 0 is actually not a valid dma mode either, so probably we should fix ata_dma_enabled instead of setting 0xff beforehand.
Attached a new patch for test, sorry for the trouble.
Works too. Also boots fine here, thx :) That makes the first bootable 3.6 kernel(with patch) for me, I hope this patch gets upstream soon Hi Aaron, second patch works for me as well! BR Szymon Janc Thank you all for your test result, I'll update the patch with all of your Tested-by tag, please let me know if you don't think I can add yours. And then I'll send it to linux-ide mailing list, then Jeff will probably take this patch. Turned out Alan Cox prefer the first approach, so I sent that patch out. Sorry for the trouble brought by the 2nd patch. The patch 'libata: set dma_mode to 0xff in reset' is taken by Jeff so this bug can be closed, thanks. Is this now fixed in the final 3.7 ? No I'm afraid. But it already arrived in Linus' tree so should appear in 3.7 stable tree some time later. Assign the bug to me to close it. Patch arrived in Linus' tree as 3.8 material, should also arrive in 3.7 stable tree some time later. A patch referencing this bug report has been merged in Linux v3.8-rc1: commit 5416912af75de9cba5d1c75b99a7888b0bbbd2fb Author: Aaron Lu <aaron.lu@intel.com> Date: Mon Dec 3 11:35:02 2012 +0800 libata: set dma_mode to 0xff in reset |
