Subject: Re: Extremely slow device removals
Date: Fri, 1 May 2020 21:48:22 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <CAMwB8mifO8kbLUHarY-nZRPwmK6YUEFTCY5AE_JVcuH38P8oZg@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20200502041826.GH10769@hungrycats.org>

Thanks for the additional information. I know it's inherently hard to
recover from some errors when caching is enabled, like an acknowledged
write that can't later be flushed to stable storage. But I had no idea
that some drives do gratuitous stuff like dropping the whole write
cache on a read error. That does seem pretty indefensible. Has anybody
gotten a response from the vendors? Does anybody keep a list of the
drives and firmware versions that do this?

(Resending because the list requires plain text)
