Description

I am getting an oversized DMA transfer request loop when attempting to
play a DVD with mplayer.

Mar 3 20:19:50 neptune kernel: acd0: setting up DMA failed
Mar 3 20:19:50 neptune kernel: ata1: FAILURE - oversized DMA transfer
attempt 73728 > 65536
Mar 3 20:19:50 neptune kernel: acd0: setting up DMA failed
Mar 3 20:19:50 neptune kernel: ata1: FAILURE - oversized DMA transfer
attempt 73728 > 65536

I instrumented the kernel with some kprintf()s and a panic() in an
attempt to track this down. I've upload a coredump to
leaf:~josepht/crash/dvd_crash.tgz. I've gone back as far as
fe667cd2edce8ea4f3dcc86526ed9759c14f0bf4 but haven't yet been able to
track down exactly when this started happening. I was not seeing this
on a system built around Jan. 27 2011, though I'm not certain how old
the sources were prior to that build.

Here's the backtrace. Note this panic() was manually inserted.

Unread portion of the kernel message buffer:

  • Description updated (diff)
  • Category set to Kernel
  • Target version set to 3.6.1

I'm running 3.6.2 and seeing the same error, although the size of the message is a little smaller, it's causing HAMMER to peg the CPU while it handles 609 additions of that to the kernel messages per second.

Actions #2

Updated by zcrownover almost 10 years ago

I had this error in a Virtual Box VM that had a corrupted ISO attached to it, when I removed the ISO, the error stopped entirely. If this matches your scenario, let me know so we can close this out.

Updated by zcrownover almost 10 years ago

  • Target version changed from 3.6.1 to 3.8

Running 3.8.0rc and this error is occuring with no disk in and flooding syslog still.

I'm about to upgrade this system to 3.8.0rc2, though I don't think any of the changes made from rc1 to rc2 would affect this. For reference, although Virtualbox claims are often dismissive as I don't know if this is due to Virtualbox or not and don't have this issue on other instances and most of my other instances are on Virtualbox as well. My Virtualbox version with this instance is 4.3.12 r93733

Does it help if you set hw.ata.atapi_dma=0 in /boot/loader.conf?

Setting that seems to have silenced the messages dumped to the kernel and also caused the system to be stable.

Hi,

Disabling DMA isn't a solution I would say.

Cheers,
