Jeff Garzik recently posted a status report about Serial ATA (SATA) on Linux. He starts with a disclaimer, "This is clearly a first draft, only covering the basics. In order for this document to be effective, I request that users and developers send me (or post) their SATA driver questions and issues. I will do my best to address them here." The document is divided into several sections, listing the status of supported hardware, an overview of the software, and finally the status on support for queueing (not yet supported, but soon), hotplug (not yet supported), and power management (well supported). From the document:
"The 'ATA host state machine', the core of the entire driver, is considered production-stable. The error handling is _very_ simple, but at this stage that is an advantage. Error handling code anywhere is inevitably both complex and sorely under-tested. libata error handling is intentionally simple. Positives: Easy to review and verify correctness. Never data corruption. Negatives: if an error occurs, libata will simply send the error back the block layer. There are limited retries by the block layer, depending on the type of error, but there is never a bus reset."

Software support
================
Basic Serial ATA support
------------------------
The "ATA host state machine", the core of the entire driver, is
considered production-stable.
The error handling is _very_ simple, but at this stage that is an
advantage. Error handling code anywhere is inevitably both complex and
sorely under-tested. libata error handling is intentionally simple.
Positives: Easy to review and verify correctness. Never data
corruption. Negatives: if an error occurs, libata will simply send
the error back the block layer. There are limited retries by the block
layer, depending on the type of error, but there is never a bus reset.
Or in other words: "it's better to stop talking to the disk than
compound existing problems with further problems."
As Serial ATA matures, and host- and device-side errata become apparent,
the error handling will be slowly refined. I am planning to work with a
few (kind!) disk vendors, to obtain special drives/firmwares that allow
me to inject faults, and otherwise exercise error handling code.
Queueing support
----------------
Even though some SATA host controllers on the market already support
command queueing (a.k.a. "TCQ"), libata does not yet support it.
However, libata was designed from the ground-up to support queueing, so
I need only change a few lines of code, and write two functions, to
enable this behavior.
Queueing will be enabled in libata soon, but to do so requires a long
stretch of testing on a large variety of controllers and drives. This
is very time-intensive, and is the largest part of this task.
Tangent: Host-based queueing and Native Command Queueing
Queueing is the process of sending multiple commands to a single device,
without waiting for prior commands to finish. This increases
performance and reduces latency. There are three types of queueing in
the ATA world:
1) "legacy TCQ" -- some PATA devices support this. Just ignore it,
it's going away.
2) "host-based TCQ" -- the host controller supports a queue of drive
commands, whether or not the drive supports it.
3) "Native Command Queueing" -- both host and drive cooperate in the
queueing and execution of drive commands. This should provide the
highest performance and lowest latency of all three options.
#1 is support by drivers/ide _only_. libata will not support this.
#2 will soon be supported by libata.
#3 will be supported by libata when hardware is available from drive
manufacturers.
Hotplug support
---------------
All SATA is hotplug.
libata does not support hotplug... yet.
Power Management support
------------------------
Over and above the power management specified in the ATA/ATAPI
specification, one can aggressively control the power consumption of
SATA hosts, the SATA bus, and the SATA device.

Hi jeff! :)
One question - with "including hotplug", does that mean some set hotplug
standard? Reason I'm asking is, we have a few servers from SuperMicro,
with a ICH5R S-ATA controller that claims it's supporting hotplug, but
hotplug is not in your ICH5-summary.
PS, libata works great on those systems, good work!

Alas, there is no hotplug support in the ICH5 or ICH5-R SATA hardware.
One could argue there is "coldplug" support in that hardware -- disable
the entire interface, including any active devices, then re-enable and
re-scan -- but it's a bit of a hack. If there's enough demand, I could
write some code for that. It would involve something like
# /sbin/sata off
{ plug in or remove a device }
# /sbin/sata on
You really, really, really don't want to actually unplug a SATA drive
while it's active, on ICH5 hardware.

RAID
What about SATA RAID support? I have a system with ICH5R but can't touch it with linux.
Promise RAID
I was finally able to access my windows drives from linux. I am using 2.6.0-test11 with the 2.6.0-test11-libata2 patch. I suffered from some momentary confusion after the devices (/dev/sda...) started showing up because I was unable to mount them. I would get an error message of busy or already mounted. However, I finally figured out that because they are raid drives, the Device Mapper mounts them under /dev/mapper/sda... from where I was finally able to mount them ( and get to my mp3/oggs ). So if you haven't tried DM yet, maybe it'll work for you. Though note, that I have a promise chipset not ICH5R. Good luck.
device mapper
I installed device mapper and don't really know what I'm doing (yet) because I've never used it before. Before I get started, will it be possible for me to move my linux install to the raid volume? I'm guessing it should be at least possible to move all my partitions (including swap?) except / to the volume. Which would be a nice improvement.
Thanks for the info.
Oops
I just found out why Linux just hasn't seen my drives at all. It is because I forgot to compile in SCSI disk support. I have SCSI CD-ROM support. I recompiled with SCSI disk and now it see's sda and sdb. Woohoo!
Now to figure out device mapper!
A bit confused
Does this mean that I can safely buy a shuttle-cube with onboard SATA and a WD Raptor?
Yes, you need no longer fear
Yes, you need no longer fear that purchase. Just pay your visa regularly and you'll have no problems.
;)
maybe
I've got an abit kd7s with onboard siI3112 controller and a WD Raptor running 2.6.0 tests 9 - 11. It works (I can develop), with some minor kinks that I'm working through currently.
TCQ?
What's TCQ?
I plan to buy a 'Silicon Image 3112', but if that TCQ thing is needed, I guess I'll need something else... Could someone please explain this a bit?
Thanks!
re: TCQ?
Tagged Command Queueing: "This facility allows the kernel to send several asynchronous requests at once to a block device. The device can service the requests as it sees fit; the advantage being that the device can arrange the transfers as best suits the device hardware. TCQ works for both reads and writes."
4 chan 64/66 SATA controller
Anyone have any suggestions for a good 4 channel SATA controller card that works at 64bit 66MHz that is easily available, doesn't cost the earth and works with 2.6.0?
Thanks.
good affordable 4 channel card
The 3ware cards meet all of your requirements. 8506 stuff is great!
promise
anybody got the pdc20376 controller to work?
promise sata 150 sx4 hell...
promise sata 150 sx4
hell...ill take any pci raid card for sata support in linux wtf!
this whole idea of not being able to use raid cards with our sata drives is 100% gay!
By the way...Promise...i will never buy another card from you again;)
Promise PDC20378
igot this chipset on my mobo Promise PDC20378 onboard sata , mobo is ASUS : PCH-DR.
i already have config the bios, on RAID property's but i have 3 SATA WD200GB , but i test with one WD80GB.
i really dont know what to do plz help me :(
thnx for your support.

Kernel 2.4 working, 2.6 doesn't
Hello, do you still have this problem. I've got the same board running under Slackware Linux (2.4.22 patched kernel). Can't get a working 2.6 kernel. Compiled all (I think...) relevant (S)ATA into 2.6. Still doesn't boot. 2.4 is working, so it should be possible. Please mail me if you have additional information for me.

problem to installed fedora 4 on sata hard disk
i want soloustions so that i can installed
linux
my computer configurations
is intel d101 mother board cpu 2.8
and 512mb ram, 80gb samsung sata
hlp me
confusing....
I tried a 2.6.3 kernel on my fresh new p4p800 (ICH5)
it give me a /dev/hde unmountable (kernel panic)
and with SATA_scsi a /dev/sda which does not lock up but shutdown
the box :)
why scsi in SATA? what should I use? hde/sda which driver?
plz make some light in my confused mind
thx
confusing.....
Hi, I've got the same setup, ICH5 + SATA + W/D 200gig. You need to make sure you've compiled in SATA support in the kernel, then refer to the disk entirely as /dev/sda sdb sdc etc. Works fine for me!
compiling sata
How to compile sata in linux kernel.?
same deal...
I'm in the same situation. Trying to install linux on my sata raptor 37gb. Mandrake 10.0 'community' reads the drive but reports numerous "interupt lost" and i get wretched delays all through installation that will last several hours, if i let them. the farthest i've made it was to formatting my ext2 partition, but after a couple hours of god knows what, it tells me there was an error.
so here i am back in XP...
damn you microsoft
Mandrake 10.0 & SATA
I have attempted to use both Mandrake 10.0 and SuSE 9.0 with SATA. Mandrake also gacked horribly for me with the supplied kernel. If you want to just install and run with SATA, I would suggest SuSE 9.0 as it worked beautifully for me out of the box.
Not certain what the Chipset is, but believe it was Promise (Yuck !). In either case, the MB was an MSI Neo Platinum with an AMD 64 2800.
Mr. Ping
P4p800 with ICH5 works great!
I've a p4p800 with a maxtor 6Y120M0 (sata hd). Sensors works temp, volts, fan) , hddtemp work only without libata (but work on the other (not sata) hd. With libata you see your hd as a scsi (sda instead hde).
hdparm -tT gave me: /dev/sda:
Timing buffer-cache reads: 3380 MB in 2.00 seconds = 1689.41 MB/sec
Timing buffered disk reads: 170 MB in 3.00 seconds = 56.64 MB/sec
While the other HD is:
Timing buffer-cache reads: 3296 MB in 2.00 seconds = 1647.43 MB/sec
Timing buffered disk reads: 66 MB in 3.02 seconds = 21.83 MB/sec
I enabled the hypertrading and now I see two cpus....but I didn't test the performance..yet.
If you want I can send you my .config and a cool snapshot of gkrellm with all those stuff running.
Ciao

HELP for 6Y120M0
Hi, I cannot install on my 6Y120M0 a Linux distribution. I've istalled on this HD win XP and I'd like to avoid loosing my data there. Is there any distribution able to see my 6Y120M0 and to mount XP ? If so please, can you write me the Bios setting and/or linux distribution to be used ?
Thanks for your support.
Vincenzo
HELP for 6Y120M0
If you give me your email address i can send you my .config file to recompile the kernel.
If you don't want to recompile you can install a good debian sarge with the debian installer.
If you want to try a debian before installing you can download the latest knoppix (there is a version with 2.6.1 and 2.4.25 kernel!) see how does it works and, eventually, installing it.
Are you italian Vincenzo? Because I'm italian too....we can speek italian!!! ;-)

ciao max e vincenzo anche io ho lo stesso problema o meglio ho installato slackware su un sata maxtor da 120gb come quello di vincenzo credo ma quando compilo il nuovo kernel il 2.6.7 non mi vede le partizioni come sda ma come hde xkè?mi mandate il vostro config?cris1981@email.it tnx
sata maxtor
La parola magica è:

Considera comunque che se compili con le nuove libata (quelle dell' sda..per capirci) hddtemp per monitorare la temperatura dell' hd non funzionerà più. Non ho trovato grandi vantaggi nell' uso delle libata e quindi ora sono tornato ...all'hde!! ;-)

I am trying since few days to install linux on my DELL Dimension 5150C computer but without success, my computer has a Samsung HD080h/j Sata hard disk,
I tried Red Hat Linux 9, Debian, and CentOS
