OpenSUSE Hardware :: Ehci_hcd Fatal Error With USB2.0 Hard Drives

May 30, 2011

I'm getting failures of ehci_hcd at random times when trying to copy files between USB2 hard disks on my new installation of OpenSUSE 11.4 on my new i7 machine. Kernel version is 2.6.37-0.5-desktop, x86_64. The error is very repeatable but happens at random times, not associated with any particular disk sector or file etc.It's becoming very annoying as it is causing files on my drives to become corrupted if they are open when the error occurs.

I have two USB2 hard drives plugged in, and I'm trying to copy files from one to the other either via terminal or nautilus. The symptom of the failure is that all USB devices on the root hub of those drives will suddenly disappear in the middle of a file transfer. This includes the KB & mouse , so I lose every USB device on the same root hub at once.

If the keyboard is on a separate root hub I can retain control of the PC. In this case, lsusb shows that the root hub to which the drives were connected has vanished - not just the drive itself. The whole root hub is gone. I have confirmed that it is NOT a problem with the drives themselves, because

(a) I have tried many different drives, of different brands, and they all do it,

(b) all my drives work flawlessly under Windows 7 and

(c) this never happened under my old OpenSUSE 11.2 on my old x86_64 core2 duo PC with the same hard drives.

They are all NTFS formatted and I use NTFS-3g to write to them. I don't have a choice about the NTFS, since they bring data from other Windows PCs. I'd much prefer to be on ext3, but what can you do. The root cause of the problem is that the ehci_hcd module is failing at a low level. It's not the NTFS-3g driver, by the looks of things. I have no idea how to fix this. I don't think it's a problem with my USB2 drives going to sleep mode because it happens in the middle of a file copy operation!

/var/log/messages output follows... /var/log/messages shows these kinds of errors at the leadup to a failure. Nothing suspicious appears until we suddenly see this:

kernel: [ 505.042722] hub 1-1:1.0: cannot reset port 3 (err = -110)
... same message repeated 4 times ...
kernel: [ 509.075401] hub 1-1:1.0: Cannot enable port 3. Maybe the USB cable is bad?
kernel: [ 509.083593] hub 1-1:1.0 cannot disable port 3 (err = -110)

[code].....

NTFS-3g then unmounts ALL the drives on that root hub and everything falls in a heap as all I/O operations and every device on that hub fails in sequence.

Fedora Hardware :: System Uses Uhci_hcd Instead Of Ehci_hcd On USB2 Ports

Jan 14, 2011

I have 8 x USB2 ports on my computer. I know this from personal experience, Windows write speeds, and the spec sheet for my motherboard. I get USB2 write speeds in windows, however when in F14 I get an average of 1.5mb/s, which is USB1.1 speed. When I run lsusb it shows 2 x USB 2.0 and 6 x USB 1.1. /proc/bus/usb/devices shows 2 ports using ehci_hcd (480speed), and 6 using uhci_hcd (12speed).

modprobe -r ehci_hcd (or uhci_hcd) fails with "FATAL: Module ehci_hcd is builtin"
rmmod ehci_hcd (or uhci_hcd) fails with "ERROR: Module ehci_hcd does not exist in /proc/modules"

1) Why are 6 ports being identified as USB 1.1

2) How to I get them to use ehci_hcd and return to USB2.0 speeds?

Debian Configuration :: Hard Drive 1 Wont Load - Gives Me A Fatal Error

May 14, 2011

My problem is that my debian in hard drive 1 wont load, gives me a fatal error.

This is my computer:
Hard drive 1 (1TB): broken debian 333gb, windows7 666GB (approximately)
Hard drive 2 (250GB): debian (working fine, im using it now).

Details: I tried to install some webcam software thing and I think somehow i deleted some system files... ...So now when I start my computer, grub loads and i choose Debian on hard drive 1,i click it but when it goes through the list of things, it says

FATAL ERROR /lib/modules/2.6.32-5-amd64/kernel/fs/fuse/fuse.ko: No such file or directory

And it just goes to a blank screen with a blinking cursor.

Now that's not all. I did something else wrong... I ran Gparted from a usb stick to create an extra partition on hard drive 1 because i was trying to install another linux on it or something so I can access my computer.

But, when I tried to shrink it and create an extra partition on the disk of about 150gb, it was taking so long and i read that it may take about 40 hours, so i turned it off after a few hours. So, I may have created more problems than my original problem.... I can still boot into Windows 7 though.

So now i have:
Hard drive 1 (1TB): broken debian about 120gb, windows7 666gb (approximately), free partition
Hard drive 2 (250GB): debian (working fine, im using it now).

Also, of interest: When I look at the folders of the messed up debian, there is nothing in the /lib/modules/2.6.32-5-amd64/kernel folder. Empty.

So basically. my problem is that I get the fatal error, and then maybe i create some extra problem by stopping the partitioning when it wasnt done. so please help me try to fix the fatal error first

General :: Cannot Copy File To USB2 External Hard Disk

Jan 25, 2010

I plan to reformat & reinstall my linux (centos).Before doing this, I got to backup my files into my USB external hard disk from Seagate (FreeAgent). The problem I faced is that I could not copy file into the hard disk even I was in root user. It prompted me that it is only read-only. I just wonder why.I have tested with my thumb drive. It worked. May I know why I could not copy file to the USB FreeAgent hard disk. Due to file system?

Ubuntu :: [325766.792025] Ehci_hcd 0000:01:07.2: Port 9 Resume Error -19

May 4, 2011

Hi, I usually use Debian which doesn't have this bug, so I hope Ubuntu users will not if this could be fixed.

Ubuntu version:
Ubuntu 10.04.1 LTS
kernel version: 2.6.32-24-generic

So problem is no matter what device I connect to USB, after some time in dmesg errors are generated which bring load of one core to 100%. These errors are generated in dmesg:

Code:

[325766.792025] ehci_hcd 0000:01:07.2: port 9 resume error -19
[325766.803033] hub 2-0:1.0: hub_port_status failed (err = -32)
[325766.814086] hub 2-0:1.0: over-current change on port 10
[325766.928027] ehci_hcd 0000:01:07.2: port 10 resume error -19

[code]....

I found solution for Ubuntu which says to get this working I should disable USB 2.0 which is not really acceptable for me.[URL]

OpenSUSE Install :: Encrypted LVM Volume - Modprobe Fatal Error

Mar 17, 2011

I recently got a eSata docking station for hard drives and after deciding to make those volumes encrypted LVM's, I created my first logical volume. After setting it up in yast2 and rebooting I received a prompt for the lvm password, gave it and received:

Mar 17 13:38:21 blkdragon kernel: [ 1105.172687] padlock: VIA PadLock not detected.

Mar 17 13:38:22 blkdragon modprobe: FATAL: Error inserting padlock_sha (/lib/modules/2.6.31.14-0.6-desktop/kernel/drivers/crypto/padlock-sha.ko): No such device

Boot resumed and I looked for the reason for this, the padlock-sha.ko module does exist in the appropiate place and the volume was mounted in spite of the error message. Lvmdump seems to indicate that the volume is, in fact, encrypted. My thoughts at the moment are that the volume was encrypted by aes, so the padlock-sha.ko was not necessary to mount the volume. Backtracking the message log the same error happened during the creation of the volume before rebooting. The kernel version gives it away but it's a 11.2 machine.

OpenSUSE :: Mounted Hard Drives - Root ?

When my husband and I installed Open SuSE 11.2, we made the mistake of telling it to have my other 2 hard drives owned by root. So now, whenever I want to open my other 2 hard drives, I have to type in the root password. How can I change this?

OpenSUSE :: Mounting Hard Drives As User?

Aug 4, 2010

OpenSuse 11.2 64bit When I select a hard drive in Dolphin file manager it asks for the root password. I would like to gain easier access to the drives. The Yast Partition Manager lists all of the drives and has a dialog box to change this i.e. user can mount the drive. Can we change this feature on the run, while the system is running ? The Fstab file is not listing all of the drives, so I cannot just edit the config here.

OpenSUSE Hardware :: DMA Disabled On All Hard Drives?

Oct 24, 2010

Recently I noted that when transferring files between my HDs the CPU usage increases up to 80~ 100%. After the transfer ends, the cpu goes back to normal. The system monitor reports no process consuming those cycles, yet there is something eating up The CPU.

Doing some research I concluded it was probably something related to DMA and UDMA. which is weird because all my drives report they have UDMA6 enabled in the BIOS, and in windows I don't have that problem.

Running hdparm -d gives me the following error: /dev/sda3: HDIO_GET_DMA failed: Inappropriate ioctl for device for every partition on every device, though this does not actually tell if DMA is on or off I suspect it is off. I checked if this was a suse exclusive problem, and to my surprise, debian and aptosid, behave exactly the same. The only reason I didnt note before is cause I had never transfered so many files before, (about 250GB) and the small transfers I did were over quite quick.

I'd like to make emphasis on:

1.The problem is the same regardless if I transfer 5GB or 150.
2. In windows my cpu does not go above 10% at any time during the transfer.

I have 3 sata HDs. All my OS's are in sda (120GB) I use sdb (250GB) and sdc (500GB) as data and media storage. ALl drives are Western Digital with less than 2 years of usage, and pass all smart tests with flying colors.

OpenSUSE Install :: Minor Updates - Fatal Error - System Halted

Mar 1, 2010

Since yesterday my computer behaves really strange. I fear it's a hardware issue. At most I did some minor updates, but no big software or OS change.

When I turn it on it goes immediately to [url]

I guess it reads

Code:
Chasis intruded
Fatal Error... System Halted.

So this happens before the boot manager... When I press the reboot button it goes to the boot manager and works seemingly fine - all I noticed that it doesn't remember the time, or better remembered the time form the last usage but doesn't count it forward. While using the time seems to pass in a normal speed.

What could this be? Some chip on the mainboard broken? Some BIOS virus (does something like that exist?) Or maybe just a cable which got lose?

I don't know which other informations could be helpful. I built it myself some years ago and the parts are pretty random (back then I didn't even know about linux compatibility nor used it at all). I have a dual boot with openSUSE 11.2 and windows xp, but the network card is deactived in xp for a year at least already.

Server :: 2 Separate External Hard Drives With ESata To Minimize An Electrical Failure To The Drives?

Mar 26, 2011

I am building a home server that will host a multitude of files; from mp3s to ebooks to FEA software and files. I don't know if RAID is the right thing for me. This server will have all the files that I have accumulated over the years and if the drive fails than I will be S.O.L. I have seen discussions where someone has RAID 1 setup but they don't have their drives internally (to the case), they bought 2 separate external hard drives with eSata to minimize an electrical failure to the drives. (I guess this is a good idea)I have also read about having one drive then using a second to rsync data every week. I planned on purchasing 2 enterprise hard drives of 500 MB to 1 GB but I don't have any experience with how I should handle my data

OpenSUSE Hardware :: After Upgrade To 11.4 Hard Drives Not Properly Unmounted During Halt?

Mar 27, 2011

I did a zypper dup upgrade from 11.3 to 11.4 with no errors. My shutdown command has always been halt -h and during shutdown, I would always see verbose info about the drives being umounted, the "term" signal being sent, and the "kill" signal being sent. Since the upgrade, I only see the "term" signal being sent, followed by shutdown. On every boot since the upgrade, the system goes through several hundred lines of file repairing as the file system is not clean after shutdown. For whatever reason, the hard drives are apparently being killed before the umount is complete. I have changed no settings. The problem exists whether I do a shutdown from the KDE menu, or run halt -h as su from a terminal.

OpenSUSE Install :: Dual Boot Windows 7 / 11.3 Using Separate Hard-drives For Each OS?

Oct 7, 2010

We were trying to install w7 on a reserved partition. W7 did not like the partition (whatever we tried).

Since we had 3 hard-drives, on the allocated drive we deleted all partitions and set the partition table type new to MSDOS (yast etc.....).

W7 installed fine. We did not time it, but it appeared that 11.3 installs faster plus considering 11.3 installs quite a number of applications.

There are plenty of postings re integrating W7 to the Grub-menu.

This system went through several Suse updates, hardware upgrades, basically was all over the place.... we did a "new" install of 11.3 allocating its own hard-drive.

Install......fine, and Grub entered W7 to the menu. Worked ! Mounted the windows partition to /home/yourusername/windows

So, if you really (?) need W7 and have a spare hard-drive, this maybe is a clean solution.

OpenSUSE Install :: Find Hard Drives On System - Motherboard With Two SATA Controller Chips

Aug 2, 2010

I just finished a build of a new GNU/Linux boxen with openSUSE 11.2. I have a MSI Big Bang Xpower X58 motherboard which has two SATA controller chips, one is the standard Intel ICH10R chip for SATA 3.0 Gb/s and one is the Marvell 9128 chip for SATA 6.0 Gb/s. The BIOS recognizes the Western Digital Caviar Black 6.0 Gb/s drive on either SATA controller chips, /however/ I am unable to install (and boot) when the drive is connected to the Marvell controlled ports. As you can guess, I'd like to boot from the faster interface!

1. The BIOS allows me to select the Western Digital drive as a secondary boot device, so I know, at least at the BIOS level, it's there. This is true whether I have the drive connected to the Intel or Marvell ports. (The DVD drive is the primary boot device.)

2. When trying to install openSUSE 11.2 from DVD, the installer says that it can't find any hard drives on my system when I have the drive connected to the Marvell port. The installer finds the drive fine when it is connected to the Intel port.

3. I installed everything with the drive connected to the Intel port. I switched the drive to the Marvell port afterward and the system refuses to boot completely, stalling at some point where it starts to look for other filesystem partitions. This led me to conclude that perhaps the problem is with openSUSE and not hardware weirdness with the system having two separate SATA controllers?

Ubuntu :: External Hard Drives - Error "Cannot Unmount Because File System On Device Is Busy"

May 19, 2011

Having problems with external hard drives. I may be wrong, but I suspect they originated with an upgrade to 10.04 last Christmas. Around that time I also started using Amazon's S3 storage system, and, as a consequence, I stopped using my WD 80G external drive, previously used to backup my important files.

A week or so ago I decided to start using the WD drive again. I can't remember exactly what I did, but it wasn't happy - never caused any problems before. When I plug it in, the on-off light as the front keeps flashing on and off, and when I try to remove the drive I get the message: Error unmounting volumne An error occured while performing an operation on "My Book" (Partition 1 of WD 800BB External): The device is busy

Details: Cannot unmount because file system on device is busy Assuming the device had died - it's about 5 years old - I bought a 160G Samsung S-Series drive - my but they do look neat! Unfortunately, this doesn't seem to have solved my problem. I plugged the new drive in, and it happily appeared on my desktop. It seemed a good idea at the time, but I then started to format the drive - using the default option of FAT. All went well at first, but then the format process stopped.

My new Samsung drive now seems to be operating pretty much as the WD device, I can't copy to the drive, and attempts to unmount it generate a response similar to what's happening with the WD drive. Currently, although plugged in, I can't see the drive on my desktop, although it appears under Places. However, when I try to mount the drive, I get the message: Unable to mount SAMSUNG A job is pending on /dev/sdb1
