SATA not recognized

Added by Mary Frantz over 11 years ago

Trying to install an intel 330 series SSD (60 Gb). I have a power brick for it and plugged that in. Connected to the SATA port (J503) and .... nothing. I saw the errata about Gen3 SATA drives, but there are no messages about atal or SATA in the boot log. There's also no /dev/sda1. I am using the Critical Link distro in MDK-2012-08-10 and the corresponding rfs.

Windows XP also can't see this drive after connecting through SATA to USB adapter. Any thoughts?

Thanks,
Mary

RE: SATA not recognized - Added by Mary Frantz over 11 years ago

I have tried the same SATA drive on a second MityDSP board as well as an older SATA drive. There are no "ata" messages in the boot log.

Could someone please respond?

Mary

RE: SATA not recognized - Added by Jonathan Cormier over 11 years ago

Mary,

There should be no reason that the drive isn't detected by Windows XP when using a USB to Sata adapter. Assuming you know the adapter works with other drives, it is possible the drive is bad.

RE: SATA not recognized - Added by Mary Frantz over 11 years ago

My colleague has another SATA drive and MityDSP board. He reports as follows:

"The drive comes up fine in Windows with the USB-SATA bridge, but no sign of it on the Mity DSP. We located an old, working SATA 1 drive and that one didn't show up either. "

My old laptop SATA drive (recently replaced) shows up on Windows XP with a USB to SATA adapter, but does not appear on the MityDSP.

Is there a way to check if SATA is configured on my kernel?

Mary

RE: SATA not recognized - Added by Jonathan Cormier over 11 years ago

Mary,

You can print the kernel config file by running:

_zcat /proc/config.gz _

You can then search the output:
zcat /proc/config.gz | grep SATA

RE: SATA not recognized - Added by Mary Frantz over 11 years ago

Here's the result:

root@MM9000:~/HelloWorldDSP/Debug# zcat /proc/config.gz | grep SATA
CONFIG_SATA_PMP=y
# CONFIG_SATA_AHCI_PLATFORM is not set
# SATA SFF controllers with BMDMA
CONFIG_SATA_MV=y
root@MM9000:~/HelloWorldDSP/Debug#

RE: SATA not recognized - Added by Michael Williamson over 11 years ago

You need SATA_AHCI_PLATFORM set. You will need to rebuild the kernel.

-Mike

RE: SATA not recognized - Added by Mary Frantz over 11 years ago

What's the best way to do that and change only that one feature?

I generated a config file from my kernel with the following command:

zcat config.gz > ~/myconfig

(See attached file)
Can this file be edited to make the required changes? or do you have to go through menuconfig?

Rebuilding the kernel is new for me, so I want to do it with minimal impact. Will I have to rebuild the DSPLink or CMEM libraries?

Mary

myconfig (54.3 KB) myconfig

RE: SATA not recognized - Added by Michael Williamson over 11 years ago

I don't think you will need to rebuild DSPLINK or CMEM.

You should be able to take the myconfig and copy it to the .config.

In theory you could edit the myconfig, but generally it's better at that point to run menuconfig and select the option. This will enable any compile time dependencies that you may need for the SATA interface.

-Mike

RE: SATA not recognized - Added by Mary Frantz over 11 years ago

I got it working.

I compared myconfig to the .config file in the MDK_2012-08-10 linux-davinci directory and they were the same. I was able to follow the directions for building a kernel in your wiki page. (Except that I built it from the MDK I had already downloaded as opposed to using git. Also u-boot-tools could not be found by apt-get.)

Ran menuconfig:
mitydsp@mitydsp-dev: make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi- menuconfig

To include SATA support:
UnSelect: Device Drivers-> Serial ATA and Parallel ATA drivers > SATA Port Multiplier Support
Select: Device Drivers
> Serial ATA and Parallel ATA drivers -> Platform AHCI SATA support

After booting with the new image, /dev/sda appeared on the target. I used fdisk to partition it, and added it to fstab. Found helpful directions for this at http://minecraft.codeemo.com/mineoswiki/index.php/Fdisk

Thanks.
Mary

RE: SATA not recognized - Added by Jonathan Cormier over 11 years ago

Mary,

Thanks for the update. I have created a task to enable SATA by default for the next MDK release. It was set in the old 2.6 kernel but was missed in the 3.2 update.
