Subject: Promise IDE on Alpha
Date: 06 May 2002 16:31:15 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <yw1xg015pcuk.fsf@xq506.e.kth.se> (raw)
Hello,
I have a Promise PDC20268 IDE controller in a PWS433au Alpha machine.
With kernel 2.4.18 it works, but only at UDMA3 which must be forced with
hdparm. UDMA4/5 can be set with hdparm, but at any disk access there are
some errors and the mode is dropped to UDMA3.
I tried 2.4.19-pre8 in the hope that it would work better. It does
correctly detect the drive as UDMA capable but only UDMA2. The higher
modes can't be set with hdparm. I found out that this was because a
udma_four flag in some struct wasn't set. I changed pdc2026xx.c and
set this flag and could set UDMA3. The better modes were still broken.
Is this Alpha specific or a generic driver problem?
dmesg output with original 2.4.19-pre8:
