Hi, I am deploying 2.6.34.8-15 on many machines successfully. With about 10 HP Workstations I regularily get the following message in the kernel log: [ 1751.292702] ata1.00: exception Emask 0x10 SAct 0x0 SErr 0x4010000 action 0xe frozen [ 1751.292706] ata1.00: irq_stat 0x00400040, connection status changed [ 1751.292710] ata1: SError: { PHYRdyChg DevExch } [ 1751.292712] ata1.00: failed command: FLUSH CACHE EXT [ 1751.292719] ata1.00: cmd ea/00:00:00:00:00/00:00:00:00:00/a0 tag 0 [ 1751.292720] res 40/00:04:83:02:ee/00:00:02:00:00/40 Emask 0x10 (ATA bus error) [ 1751.292723] ata1.00: status: { DRDY } [ 1751.292728] ata1: hard resetting link [ 1756.044876] ata1: SATA link up 3.0 Gbps (SStatus 123 SControl 300) [ 1756.047118] ata1.00: configured for UDMA/100 [ 1756.047122] ata1.00: retrying FLUSH 0xea Emask 0x10 [ 1756.047250] ata1: EH complete I also experience severe data loss whenever such an error occurs. Typically I cannot issue "make config" in the kernel sources anymore on an affected system due to binary garbage in C-Sources. Any hints? Shall I open a bugzilla entry? BTW: I already pulled all BIOS options including an upgrade to the most recent and different energy saving options for SATA.

[opensuse-kernel] kabi change in openSUSE-11.4
by Michal Marek 09 Mar '11

09 Mar '11

Hi, opensuse-11.4 git branch got updated to 2.6.37.3, which has this commit http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-2.6.37.y.git;a=commi…. The change to struct address_space changes the checksum of pretty much every exported symbol. Is it worth working around this change or is it OK to change the kabi in the first kernel update of 11.4? Given that the most popular kmps are nvidia and ati binary drivers, Stefan, how difficult is to publish new versions of these?

[opensuse-kernel] openSUSE - User Mode Linux
by Sankar P 02 Mar '11

02 Mar '11

Hi, I am trying to see what user mode linux is and trying to see how one can use userspace tools like callgrind, valgrind to debug the kernel. I followed the instructions in the UML wiki (http://user-mode-linux.sourceforge.net/ ) . I found that after compiling the kernel sources (Linus' tree) with ARCH=um option, I need to download a root filesystem which is based of fedora. Instead of downloading that I would like to know if there is any other root filesystem that I can use which is based on SUSE. I have not looked into the wiki page in detail to find out how I can create my custom root filesystem image for UML. But before that I wanted to check if there is any openSUSE based root image, that I can just download and use. Sorry if something is wrong in my mail due to a misunderstanding.
