Subject2.4.21-rc1: DMA disabled for ide-scsi
Hello.

This is odd. Since 2.4.21-pre5 I can't enable dma for my cd-rom drive. (I haven't checked pre1-pre4) This only happens when ide-scsi is been loaded. If I'm using "the normal" ide-cd everything works fine.

When loading ide-scsi, linux explicitely disables dma:

kernel: SCSI subsystem driver Revision: 1.00
kernel: hdb: attached ide-scsi driver.
kernel: hdb: DMA disabled
kernel: hdd: attached ide-scsi driver.
kernel: hdd: DMA disabled
kernel: scsi0 : SCSI host adapter emulation for IDE ATAPI devices
kernel: Vendor: COMPAQ Model: CD-ROM LTN485 Rev: KQA4
kernel: Type: CD-ROM ANSI SCSI revision: 02
kernel: Vendor: HP Model: CD-Writer+ 9100b Rev: 1.06
kernel: Type: CD-ROM ANSI SCSI revision: 02

Why does linux do this ? I digged in the sources but couldn't find any appropiate changes which can cause this behaviour.

# hdparm -d1 /dev/hdb

/dev/hdb:
setting using_dma to 1 (on)
HDIO_SET_DMA failed: Operation not permitted
using_dma = 0 (off)


However with ide-cd everything works as expected:

kernel: hdb: attached ide-cdrom driver.
kernel: hdb: ATAPI 48X CD-ROM drive, 120kB Cache
kernel: hdd: attached ide-cdrom driver.
kernel: hdd: ATAPI 32X CD-ROM CD-R/RW drive, 2048kB Cache

Copying with ide-cd is significantly faster and consumes less cpu load (dma enabled), but with ide-scsi it is slow (700 KB/s) like pio/4.

Any clues ?
