Intel IDE/PATA driver (ata_piix.ko) for Linux Automation DS6.8SP2 to DS6.9SP2  

Jun 23, 2010 12:20 PM

This download of ata_piix.ko is for anyone using the DS6.8SP2 to DS6.9SP2 Linux automation environments (which use the 2.6.18.8 kernel).  This driver particularly encompasses support for the Intel 5 Series SATA controllers configured in the BIOS for PATA/IDE mode.

If automation can't see the disks on the latest Intel controller hardware that's configured in a legacy mode, this driver is probably for you. The driver is based on the 2.00 version by Jeff Garzik , but I've  enhanced it to provide the latest device support. A modinfo on this driver will show the version number as 2.00-ILA2010.

If this download works for you on your models it would be great if you could you post your model details here. This will help others searching for drivers on Connect.

If you have problems, attached to this article is a shell script,  mass_storage_dump.txt. Create a Linux automation job with this attached script embedded and execute on machines with mass-storage controller problems. This will create a dump file in  \\DSSERVER\eXpress\LOGS\ [ProductName]\[AutomationDump.txt,which you can PM to me for diagnostics.

Kind Regards,
Ian./

Ian, again, you have not failed to produce results. 

This ATAPI driver worked for me in our environment using ATA settings in the bios for our Dell Latitude E6410.  I also grabbed your AHCIii.ko and your updated e1000e.ko file for the E6410 series.  3 files, 100% success on each one.  You are a lifesaver.

Our environment is using the DS 6.9 (no service packs).

We're pretty snowed under at the moment to move forward with an upgrade of this kind. I could perhaps find time to upgrade the LinuxPE image only and roll in the e1000e.ko driver - would that be feasible?

This might be one of the cases where the hack I've put in place by making new controllers look like old ones just doesn't work.

Is there any chance you can upgrade to DS6.9, the newer Linux kernel will sort you our for sure.

Kind Regards,
Ian./

When set to AHCI in the BIOS, and with the assistance of your previsouly uploaded ahci.ko driver, the T61 images succesfully however blue screens (in the absence of Windows-side AHCI drivers in the image) upon reboot, and you need to set it back to compatibility in the BIOS for Windows to work.

Could you let me know what the disk mode in configured to in the BIOS for this thinkpad? I suspect it is in Legacy or ATA mode. If so, can you try changing to AHCI and see what happens?

Create a job, and and a run script task. Copy the contents of the attached diag script into the embedded script box, and click next. Select the script to run in Linux automation and then schedule it on your client.

It will run silently, but once done you should see a spanking new txt file in the LOG folder on the eXpress share.

I believe the hard drive is formatted as NTFS - we deploy Windows XP to these devices and the test was to reimage the PC. I'll try and delete the partition table as you suggest and try again.

Meantime, how to I apply the diagnostic script?

Thanks

OK -I've now added a debug shell script to the article which should help us out.

Can you tell me how this disk is formatted? I've heard of this issue on the Apple/Ubuntu forums, and there is a bug which means which seems to relate to how the disk is formatted.

Could you try and wipe the partition table on the disk (perhaps using fdisk DOS automation) and try again? In the meantime, I've got a  diagnostic script which I'll add to the article in a few moments. Once that's up, if you could past the output here that would be great.

Kind Regards,
Ian./

Further to the above, LinuxPE returns the following at boot:

ata_piix 0000:00:1f:2: invalid MAP value 2

Sadly, the driver now prevents our LinuxPE from seeing the hard drive in these models when set to compatibility in the BIOS.

I haven't tried rolling back the ata_piix.ko yet, but when set to AHCI in the BIOS, and with the assistance of your previsouly uploaded ahci.ko driver, the T61 images succesfully but blue screens (in the absence of Windows-side AHCI drivers in the image) upon reboot and until you set it back to compatibility in the BIOS.

Any suggestions Ian?

Glad it worked.... haven't been able to test much of this myself so just had fingers crossed... ;-)
