Happens at least on WDC's (SATA).
Comment 1 pipa.tk 2010-10-13 07:31:36 UTC
I have the same issue, and I am testing the patch from http://lkml.org/lkml/2010/4/26/335

It seems resolved, try it.
Comment 2 ksb 2010-10-14 14:09:18 UTC
Tested again with 2.6.35.7 where the patch already included. Unfortunately nothing changed - errors on heavy writes. Test cases like smartctl don't trigger any errors.
Further tests will be with other sata hdd's.
Comment 3 pipa.tk 2010-10-15 01:10:37 UTC
Yes, this patch not functioned completely. After I apply this patch with 2.6.18.8-xen and run for 2 days, IO still hang every 1~3 hours. It's more less than before. The message shows:

Comment 4 pipa.tk 2010-10-29 03:34:31 UTC
Which harddisk ary you used, ST31500341AS?

Relate bug: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13594
Comment 5 ksb 2010-11-04 09:59:46 UTC
As I said before - happens only on WD'c, exactly WD2500AAKS. It don't happen on other older hdd's, i.e. WDC WD2500KS.
HDD's are connected to 6-Drive Hot-Swap Expander Board AXX6DRV3GEXP, but when I attach SATA hdd's directly to mainboard - everything works ok, without any errors.
Comment 6 quintin 2010-11-06 11:51:34 UTC
I too am seeing this behavior on 2.6.26 after applying the patch from: http://lkml.org/lkml/2010/4/26/335 - The drives we're using are: WD5000BEKT

Sometimes we have 1 drive drop from the array, other times multiple. The messages from the latest were:

Upon further testing the drive turns out to be fine. I have hardware available & are happy to test patches / perform additional debugging if required.
Comment 7 ksb 2010-11-10 20:53:25 UTC
After testing on 2.6.36 situation seems to be slightly better. Probably it happens little bit rarer, but the problem still exists.
Comment 8 Daobang Wang 2011-08-03 06:31:49 UTC
I test it on 2.6.36.4 with HitachiHDE72101, it has the same issue.

But it was ok when test it with smartctl

I have this issue as well (Bug #42765) in Linux on VMWare, but the patch from lkml is not in ESXi 5.0. I created a VIB to patch the ESXi scsi-mptsas driver and will follow up when I have time to test it.

Mine occurs during high disk write utilization, seemingly independent of what disk is attached to the controller.
