Subject: 2.6.28: Is there a way to disable sata probing for certain ports?
Date: Tue, 30 Dec 2008 07:24:47 -0500 (EST) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <alpine.DEB.1.10.0812300605250.11356@p34.internal.lan> (raw)
When I boot from an Intel X25-E SSD, it takes roughly a few seconds;
however, items such as:
$ dmesg|grep link\ down
[ 2.447030] ata4: SATA link down (SStatus 0 SControl 300)
[ 4.481288] ata5: SATA link down (SStatus 0 SControl 0)
[ 6.501288] ata6: SATA link down (SStatus 0 SControl 0)
[ 8.522038] ata7: SATA link down (SStatus 0 SControl 0)
[ 10.552288] ata8: SATA link down (SStatus 0 SControl 0)
Scanning for devices on channels that have nothing connected adds to the
boot time, is there anyway to turn off/disable scanning for certain ports
to help speed the boot process?
