Hi Bharat

Thanks for the reply. I have observed following thing

If IOMMU is enabled in BIOS and I use following option
FCH SATA Debug Options --> Unused SATA Port Auto Shut Down Disabled. Issue is not happening. I have attached dmesg and lspci output with this option

Also I have attached lspci log with IOMMU disabled.

When issue is happening I am not able to take lspci logs as it stops in initramfs itself. I will try to get.


Thanks

Nehal

So here when you are disabling MSI, it is working with legacy interrupts or MSI-X.
Can you post the end sata device lscpi -xxx -vvv content.
