Hello, Alan.

We've been getting bug reports from sata_via users for quite sometime now. The first IRQ driven command (IDENTIFY) times out and thus device detection fails. The following patch seems to fix it for many users.

But, not for all.

http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7415

Any ideas how to proceed on this bug?

I'm not certain, but I think that this is an unrelated issue. Both the working kernel and the failing kernels quirk the device in the same way:

PCI: VIA IRQ fixup for 0000:00:0f.0, from 11 to 2

Both the working kernel (2.6.17-gentoo-r8) and the first failing kernel (2.6.18-gentoo) have the same patch for 'fixing' the quirk issues: Chris's changes were reverted, the VIA IRQ quirk was back in the 2.6.16 state. Since then the same issues have been observed with unpatched 2.6.19-rc.

This is not definitive but suggests the issue is elsewhere.
