Missing _SDD is not an error. Don't treat it as one.

hmmmm, do you have a link to the bug report?

How critical is this? Is it a regression fix?

We are very late into 2.6.32-rc, where we try to minimize the patches applied as much as possible.

http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=551942

But the access is restricted because of SLE*11 stuff (and the machine is too new :)

I can forward dmesg of any other information, but ...

... it's neither critical nor regression fix. Essentially it suppresses the unneeded warning messages at boot (and gives a more clear error code).

It's fine for 2.6.33, I suppose.

thanks,

Unfortunately, it's from novell internal bugzilla entry, but the following is how it looks like without the patch.

[   15.720046] ata1: SATA link up 3.0 Gbps (SStatus 123 SControl 300)
[   16.540846] ata1.00: ACPI _SDD failed (AE 0x5)
[   16.553907] ata1.00: ACPI: failed the second time, disabled
[   16.567311] ata1.00: configured for UDMA/100
Quoted 1 line

It's not critical. libata-acpi code will give up after a couple of tries and just turn off ACPI and is not a regression.

This can go into #upstream then. No biggie.

Thanks.
