Prolific based FireWire/USB combo devices are notorious for being sold
with ancient broken firmwares of their FireWire part (not of the USB
part), so it's good that you installed a recent firmware.  Do they have
release notes or release dates which you could compare with those of
Prolific's own firmware?

Occasional timeouts shouldn't be a problem.  The fact that the timeout
of the very first attempted command (which is accompanied by the SBP-2
protocol request of a "fetch agent reset") is followed-up by several
more timeouts, so that the SCSI subsystem eventually decides to take the
device offline, is IMO a hint on a fragile firmware.

Default timeouts of different kinds are hardwired in the SCSI subsystem.
 From linux/include/scsi.h:

#define FORMAT_UNIT_TIMEOUT		(2 * 60 * 60 * HZ)
#define START_STOP_TIMEOUT		(60 * HZ)
#define MOVE_MEDIUM_TIMEOUT		(5 * 60 * HZ)
#define READ_ELEMENT_STATUS_TIMEOUT	(5 * 60 * HZ)
#define READ_DEFECT_DATA_TIMEOUT	(60 * HZ )

There is also a writable sysfs attribute for each SCSI device of which
effects I am uncertain:
# ll /sys/bus/scsi/devices/0\:0\:0\:0/timeout
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 4096 Jul  4 21:10
/sys/bus/scsi/devices/0:0:0:0/timeout
# cat /sys/bus/scsi/devices/0\:0\:0\:0/timeout
30

What if you set a higher value in there with "echo XYZ > ..."?

Apparently the firmware is stuck in a loop, after the sbp2 driver told
it to abort that timed-out command and to start over when the next
command comes.

Yes, the cable topology doesn't influence this.  The FireWire link layer
controller/ SCSI target/ IDE bridge is on one chip, and the FireWire
physical interface is on another chip.  That phy chip is also a FireWire
repeater, transparently to the link layer controller.

That's a message from sbp2's SCSI command timeout handler
(.eh_abort_handler).

Timeout handler again.

> Jul  2 07:52:22 doriath kernel: [52304.212000] ieee1394: sbp2: generating sbp2 fetch agent reset

That's sbp2's SCSI device reset handler (.eh_device_reset_handler).  It
doesn't actually do anything what the timeout handler already tried to
do, so it's quite pointless.  When this gets called because the SCSI
subsystem didn't see a lot of success with the previous command abort
handler calls, the SBP-2 target firmware is probably already dead.

Maybe we should implement something more drastic in the device reset
handler --- e.g. an actual request for a reset similar to power reset.
I never tried this, so I don't know if that would really improve
anything.  I'll notify you when I'm in the mood to write a respective patch.

Looks like RaidSonic actually delivered an original Prolific Firmware
and didn't even replace the vendor string.

Hi,

My problem was a classical "false positive": in this case there really 
seems to have been a problem:

I noticed that one of the disks had the problem more often than the 
other. So I have taken it to the store where had bought it and let them 
exchange it under warranty conditions, claiming a disk spinup problem 
after resuming from standby (which is not really far away from reality).

After having installed the new disk, the problem has not occurred any 
more. This is now 2 months ago. As far as I can tell the PL-3507 does 
not seem to show any problems with firewire at all.
Just for reference for other people:
I'm using Firmware Version: 2006.04.20.149 [Checksum 4D6F]

Thanks anyway for the help!!!
