 Hello 
 I am trying to set hdparm on my laptop and keep getting this error
 setting using_dma to 1 (on)
HDIO_SET_DMA failed: Operation not permitted
using_dma  = 0 (off)

 I have gone through my kernel configs looking for anything dma related
i may need but cant seem to find anything. Any ideas, thanks.

Probably you didn't compile in the right chipset. Have a look in kernel config:
Device Drivers -> ATA/ATAPI/MFM/RLL support and make sure that you
have  "Generic PCI bus-master DMA support" turned on together with the
right chipset.

 Yes you were completely right i forgot to add the option for my
chipset, thanks for the info it is working now.

I would guess that you're either not root when trying to change the
settings or you have an old disk that doesn't support DMA.

[gentoo-user] hdparm error

[Grant]

When hdparm runs at boot, I see the following errors:

Running hdparm on /dev/hda ...
HDIO_SET_DMA failed: Operation not permitted
Running hdparm on /dev/hdc ...
HDIO_SET_DMA failed: Operation not permitted

Here's my /etc/conf.d/hdparm :

hda_args="-d 1 -A 1 -m 16 -u 1 -a 64"
hdc_args="-d 1"

Could this be because I have support for my motherboard chipset in the
kernel and it has control?

I Grant,

Look in:

I do have that option enabled.

Hmm, more likely you do *not* have the right chipset enabled.

What does lspci report?

It looks like I only have generic chipset support in the kernel and
nothing specific.

Ok, add:

ATA/ATAPI/MFM/RLL support
  ...
  [*]     PCI IDE chipset support
  [*]       Sharing PCI IDE interrupts support
  ...
  <*>       Generic PCI IDE Chipset Support
  ...
  [*]       Generic PCI bus-master DMA support
  [ ]         Force enable legacy 2.0.X HOSTS to use DMA
  [*]         Use PCI DMA by default when available
  [ ]           Enable DMA only for disks
  ...
  <*>         Intel PIIXn chipsets support

HTH,
