 Posted: Sat Mar 22, 2008 10:41 pm Post subject: Silicon 680 PCI / IDE controller: Where's my drive? [SOLVED] |
 |
|
I am trying to add additional IDE drives to computer running Gentoo Linux 2.6.24-r3. I have installed a IDE RAID 2 Port PCI Host (but I don't care about the RAID functionality for now). I am not able to locate the drive attached to the controller in the relevant disk utilities even though I believe the controller is being recognized by the kernel. I can also see the new drive in the BIOS configuration utility that the controller offer during startup.
Below are the relevant portions of running lscpi -v and lscpci -nn on the machine in question. (The new controller is listed second in each case, I believe.)

Below are the results of running fdisk -l. I have part of hda and all of hdb under LVM. hdc and hdd are CD-R and DVD drives respectively. I am expecting the new drive to show up as hde.

Your current kernel has support for the Silicon Integrated Systems 5513 controller, but not for the Silicon Image 0680 controller, that is why your new harddrive doesn't show up.
| Code: | Device Drivers --->
<*> ATA/ATAPI/MFM/RLL support --->
<*> Include IDE/ATA-2 DISK support
< > Silicon Image chipset support (NEW)
<*> SiS5513 chipset support |
Another approach would be to get rid of the legacy IDE drivers, and use the newer libata drivers instead.
This would result in your drives being named /dev/sd* instead of /dev/hd*
| Code: | Device Drivers --->
SCSI device support --->
<*> SCSI disk support
<*> Serial ATA (prod) and Parallel ATA (experimental) drivers --->
<*> CMD / Silicon Image 680 PATA support
<*> SiS PATA support (Experimental) |
Whichever way you choose to go, including both IDE and libata drivers in the same kernel is generally a bad idea. |

Thanks for the tips. Indeed, when I added support for the Silicon Image chipset, I can see that hde is being recognized when the kernel loads. Unfortunately, the process ends in a kernel panic following a delay and then the message "hde: <4>hde:dma_time_expiry: dma status==0x21"
I'm willing to ditch the legacy drivers and use the Serial ATA support but would like to understand the implications of that for the existing drives, some of which are currently under LVM. Am I going to be able to find my way back to these two physical voiumes once they are renamed?
| Quote: | PV /dev/hda4 VG vg lvm2 [12.29 GB / 300.00 MB free]
PV /dev/hdb1 VG vg lvm2 [18.64 GB / 660.00 MB free]
Total: 2 [30.94 GB] / in use: 2 [30.94 GB] / in no VG: 0 [0 ] |
How much danger is there in some critical LVM files being overwritten if I boot into a kernel with SATA support? How can I back those up?
Thanks again. |

I am not very familiar with LVM, but you may need to reconfigure something in order for it to find the renamed drives.
I doubt this would cause any loss of data.
ps. If you were running without LVM, the only files you would have to rename the drives in would be /etc/fstab and /boot/grub/grub.conf |

|
|
Well, I'm back at trying to get this PCI IDE card to work after a couple of months of neglect. Basically, the situation is that I am trying to connect a 60G IDE drive to an siI0680 PCI IDE controller. The controller is recognized by BIOS and the kernel, however I cannot access the drive; the plainest symptom of the issue is a DMA timeout message. The drive works fine when connected to the onboard IDE controller although these are already connected to existing drives.
This is the PCI device's info:
| Code: | 00:09.0 RAID bus controller: Silicon Image, Inc. PCI0680 Ultra ATA-133 Host Controller (rev 02)

This is what I see in dmesg: ( I switched the kernel code into a module on the advice of another post: https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-218005-highlight-sii+0680.html ) Also, it looks like LVM got mixed up in the messages too, probably reflecting two different and unsuccessful attempts to access hde, the new drive connected to the PCI IDE controller.

Any suggestions on something that's misconfigured on my end? Switching to SATA is intriguing but intimidating because this is a core machine and I want to avoid breaking it through experimentation.
Thanks. |

The DMA timeout error you are getting could be caused by defective hardware (the drive or the cable or the controller).
It could also be caused by a buggy driver, so maybe trying the libata driver would give better results ...
You could also test the new controller by plugging your existing drives (hda, hdb, hdc, hdd) into it, and see if you get similar errors in dmesg. |

Any updates on this? I'm having the exactly same problem (i.e. making "Silicon Image, Inc. PCI0680 Ultra ATA-133 Host Controller" work with kernel 2.4). Kernel 2.6 seems fine, but I do need 2.4 for this particular case. Considering that Slackware v11.0 with kernel 2.4 can recognize it, I'm sure there is a way, but I just can't figure out what kernel options to use. I'd appreciate any help.

Once I got the card recognized, I ended up finally resolving the DMA problem by switching the PCI slot the card was in. That's not going to help with 2.4 though and I'm not sure what the 2.4 kernel supports although some quick searching seems to indicate that kernel support for the cards came in around 2.4.18.
Is CONFIG_BLK_DEV_SIIMAGE available and set in your kernel version? That did the trick for me. |

I sort of got lazy and resorted to an "all-inclusive" type of kernel, which worked right out of the box without much tweaking. And CONFIG_BLK_DEV_SIIMAGE is checked, although I'm not sure that was what made it work or not.
