how to reconize firewire HD ?

PyrosFR · Posted: Sun Nov 02, 2003 5:15 pm Post subject: how to reconize firewire HD ?

Hi

I just plug in a pinnacle studio DV 1394 card

I compiled ieee1391, raw1394, ohci1394, sbp2 sg, sd_mod as module

i can modprobe all of these

but there's no sda created...

#lspci |grep 1394
00:09.0 FireWire (IEEE 1394): Lucent Microelectronics FW323 (rev 04)

lsmod :
sd_mod 11468 0 (unused)
sbp2 16448 0 (unused)
scsi_mod 91156 2 [sd_mod sbp2]
ohci1394 16072 0 (unused)
ieee1394 32492 0 [sbp2 ohci1394]

tail /var/log/message :
Nov 2 18:13:55 random kernel: ohci1394: $Rev: 578 $ Ben Collins <bcollins@debian.org>

Nov 2 18:13:58 random kernel: - Serialized I/O (debug): no

but still scsi drive reconized.
This drive works fine on another pc with fw port.

# ~/rescan-scsi-bus.sh
Host adapter 0 (sbp2) found.
0 new device(s) found.
0 device(s) removed.

any idea ?

I don't know what the specific order is, but I do know that the order that you probe those modules in matters. Is the firewire drive plugged in when you are loading the modules? Have you tried loading all the modules, then plugging it in and seeing what dmesg says after that?

do you have hotplug device support in your kernel?

have you emerged hotplug and done

i just added hotplug...

now it load some 1394 modules at boot but get lots of error :
Nov 2 20:06:55 random kernel: ohci1394: $Rev: 578 $ Ben Collins <bcollins@debian.org>

Nov 2 20:06:55 random kernel: ohci1394_0: Too many errors on SelfID error reception, giving up!

if i uplugg and re-plug, i've got that :

Nov 2 20:15:44 random kernel: ohci1394_0: Too many errors on SelfID error reception, giving up!

thanks for your help

Ok. hmm. When trying to get my iPod to work on my linux box I got a bunch of those errors to, but usually I just unplug it and plug it back in and things seem to work.

(i am assuming you booted with the FW device unplugged, if not try booting with it unplugged and post back.)
since the selfID errors occur before the device is plugged in, that could indicate a bad firewire card (or controller on MB), or they could indicate that you dont have support for the right stuff in your kernel.

Basically, ya need to fix all of the errors with the device unplugged, and then plug it in and try to fix those errors.

What FW speciffic stuff did you compile into your kernel or as modules and which modules are you auto loading?

#cat /usr/src/linux/.config |grep 1394

CONFIG_IEEE1394_RAWIO=m
# CONFIG_IEEE1394_CMP is not set
# CONFIG_IEEE1394_VERBOSEDEBUG is not set

nothing about 1394 in autoload (just network card and sound card)

Everything loaded by hotplug
CONFIG_HOTPLUG=y
CONFIG_HOTPLUG_PCI=y
and hotplug packages emerged and added to default

if i boot without any device, i still get the message about Self Id...

this chipset should "works" according to linux1394.org

are your firewire ports on a card or onboard?

you can always try booting with no apic or apic (i forget which one it is, you can try one or the other or both.). Sometimes they cause problems with drivers that can be fixed by turning them off.

Also, if it is a card, it never hurts to try the card in different slots and see if it works when that is the only pci card plugged into your machine.

If none of that works, turn on the extra debug information and see what that tells you.
