Dear coreboot and SeaBIOS folks,
testing the SSD Crucial m4 SSD 2.5 256 GB SATA 6 Gb/s on the Lenovo X60t, the payload SeaBIOS 1.7.5-40-g5109366 does not detect the drive.
[…] 32.705: |7f673000| WARNING - Timeout at ahci_port_setup:466! 32.705: |7f673000| AHCI/0: device not ready (tf 0x80) 33.205: |7f673000| WARNING - Timeout at ahci_port_reset:336! […]
Hitting Ctrl + Alt + Delete, the drive is detected.
It is also reproducible on the Lenovo T60 with coreboot from four years ago and SeaBIOS 1.7.0-91-g7a39e72.
The drive is detected correctly on the ASRock E350M1 with coreboot and SeaBIOS 1.7.5.
Please find the whole serial log from SeaBIOS below.
Does that look like a coreboot or SeaBIOS problem?
Thanks,
Paul

It looks like an SSD problem. Try adding a delay in SeaBIOS.

It's a SSD problem. I have the exact same SSD in my chromebook, and the SSD needs at least 500ms after power up to do it's initialization. If i use a unpatched coreboot, i get the same errors (and a 5s stall after resume from S3)
Regards Sven
Dear Sven,
thank you for your reply. I moved the discussion to the SeaBIOS mailing per Kevin’s request [1].

By the way, could you please attach the patch you use?
Which firmware does your drive have?
According to the label on the SSD I have, firmware revision 0309. Hdparm should also list the firmware revision with `hdparm -i /dev/sda`, I believe.
Kevin suggests an upgrade of the firmware? Depending on whether you already tried the latest firmware revision 070H from April 2nd, 2013 [2], I would put that off, as there are reports later revisions do not run as stable as 0309 [3] (at least 000F).
The other improvements on 000F are probably not needed and some people (e.g. mac users) seem to find 0309 more stable than 000F. But if you have earlier than 0309 you should upgrade.
Changelog for 070H:
* Like recent firmware versions, version 070H has improvements over versions 000F which are specific for Windows 8 and new UltraBook systems, although systems running Windows 7 and other operating systems may also see improvements. Any m4 firmware version will function normally in Windows 8, even without these performance improvements. * The following is a summary of changes between 040H and 070H, which are independent of operating system: * Resolved a power-up timing issue that could result in a drive hang, resulting in an inability to communicate with the host computer. The hang condition would typically occur during power-up or resume from Sleep or Hibernate. Most often, a new power cycle will clear the condition and allow normal operations to continue. The failure mode has only been observed in factory test. The failure mode is believed to have been contained to the factory. This fix is being implemented for all new builds, for all form factors, as a precautionary measure. The fix may be implemented in the field, as desired, to prevent occurrence of this boot-time failure. To date, no known field returns have been shown to be related to this issue. A failure of this type would typically be recoverable by a system reset.
That last item might even be a fix for the issue we experience, so I am curious if you have tried it.
Thanks,
Paul

Do I understand correctly that you have a firmware newer than this, and you can reliably reproduce the problem?
Or if your firmware is older, why don't you try to upgrade and tell us the results?
Since you are buying hardware components for Windows machines but not using them as they were designed (with Windows) you will have issues that manufacturers do not care about.
//Peter
TLDR; Upgrading the drive firmware to 070H solved the issue.

Upgrading the firmware is cumbersome as at least for Crucial drives no GNU/Linux user space tools are provided and burning a CD for 5 MB seems to be waste.
In the end I succeeded upgrading the drive by booting from a live system on desktop PC with a proprietary BIOS, as the USB device was not detected on the Lenovo X60 with coreboot and SeaBIOS, and loaded the extracted files from the ISO image
$ sudo modprobe loop $ sudo mount /tmp/crucial-firmware-update.iso /mnt -o loop $ # copy files to /boot
with GRUB. In the command line mode, I entered the following.
kernel16 /memdisk floppy raw initrd16 /boot2880.img boot
The upgrade from 0309 to 070H was successful and trying the drive in the Lenovo X60t it was detected by SeaBIOS even at cold boot.
Since you are buying hardware components for Windows machines but not using them as they were designed (with Windows) you will have issues that manufacturers do not care about.
That is correct, but in this case even if there had been MS Windows installed on the SSD, it would not have been detected. ;-)
Thanks,
Paul
