>Description:
Until DMA bugs exist in 5_2_RELENG systems, I have to disable DMA to keep it stable. I have an Abit IS-7E motherboard with two Maxtor SATA 160G disks.
I cannot safe boot nor boot with hw.ata.ata_dma="0" with my latest kernel. It hangs at 'Mounting root from ufs:/dev/vinum/root' prompt. I tried with no vinum boot (ufs:ad4s1a), with no success.
Appropriate lines from dmesg (with 5.2.1-RC kernel):
atapci1: <Intel ICH5 SATA150 controller> port 0xd000-0xd00f,0xcc00-0xcc03,0xc800-0xc807,0xc400-0xc403,0xc000-0xc007 irq
18 at device 31.2 on pci0
atapci1: [MPSAFE]
ata2: at 0xc000 on atapci1
ata2: [MPSAFE]
ata3: at 0xc800 on atapci1
ata3: [MPSAFE]

GEOM: create disk ad4 dp=0xc6b6b960
ad4: 152627MB <Maxtor 6Y160M0> [310101/16/63] at ata2-master PIO4
GEOM: create disk ad6 dp=0xc6b6b560
ad6: 150100MB <Maxtor 6Y160M0> [304965/16/63] at ata3-master PIO4
>How-To-Repeat:
1. compile latest src with 5_2_RELENG tag
2. boot with hw.ata.ata_dma="0", using an ICH5-based motherboard with SATA disks
3. boot will hang at the prompt "Mounting root from ..."
>Fix:
5.2.1-RC kernel works with dma disabled
