Subject: Re: sata errors with Seagate 1.5TB on AMD 780G/SB700 motherboard
Hi,
I've got this issue, and I'm involved in the thread on the Seagate
forums. I've been going through the libata code with a fine tooth comb
to see if I can find the issue, and so far - not a lot of joy.
However, and this is more directed to Jeff Garzik, there is a minor
display bug with drives that have more than 2^31 sectors.
The messages:
ata3.00: HPA detected: current 2930277168, native 18446744072344861488
is a bug. The two sector counts are calculated from different ATA
commands and are parsed differently:
Current Sector Count is retrieved from the IDENTIFY result (words
100-103), and calculated with the ata_id_u64() macro
Native Sector Count (LBA48 max) is retrieved from the READ NATIVE
MAX ADDRESS EXT command, and calculated with the ata_tf_to_lba48()
function.
ata_tf_to_lba48() seems to be overflowing when the total size will be
greater than 2^31 sectors, while ata_id_u64() does not.
I noticed an identical bug in the latest release of hdparm 8.9, even
returning an identical native sector count, but hdparm gets its
information from the IDENTIFY result. I've been able to patch hdparm
to display correctly. Haven't yet tried to patch ata_tf_to_lba48()
because the data is stored differently and haven't had the time to
figure it out yet.
I have some code that shows the bug in action against the hdparm
implementation, won't be hard to modify to prove the bug against the
ata_tf_to_lba48() implementation, but I'm not at home at the moment
and can't send it through. I can also send through the appropriate
values for words 100 - 103.
All that said, this does NOT appear to be causing the issues that both
you and I are suffering from - I can't see anywhere in libata that
uses the ata_tf_to_lba48() function other than the HPA detection code,
and it seems purely display related only, although Jeff would
hopefully be able to comment further on this and whether there could
be other code doing LBA48 calculations like this.
Cheers,
Phillip
