Summary: Sending a 48bit ATA-Command with "CheckCondition"
through SG_IO does not return correct 48bit sense
descriptor
Product: SCSI Drivers
Version: 2.5
Kernel Version: 2.6.31
Platform: All
OS/Version: Linux
Tree: Mainline
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P1
Component: Other
AssignedTo: scsi_drivers-other@kernel-bugs.osdl.org
ReportedBy: stefan.huebner@stud.tu-ilmenau.de
Regression: No
Example: sending a correct "READ_NATIVE_MAX_ADDRESS_EXT" to /dev/sdd (opened
O_RDWR | O_NONBLOCK) via ATA_PASSTHROUGH_16 (SCSI-Command 0x85) with the EXTEND
and the CHECK_CONDITION bits set to 1 yields sense data in descriptor-format.
Unfortunately, the descriptor does not have EXTEND set, and by that only
returns 24 Bits of LBA.
This obviously is a bug, as the SAT-2 Draft says: "If the sense data is for an
ATA PASS-THROUGH (16) command with the EXTEND bit set to one, then the SATL
shall return the 48-bit extended status and shall set the EXTEND bit to one."
Contents of important data-structures for SG_IO:
sg_io_hdr.cmdlen = 16
*sg_io_hdr.cmdp = {0x85 0x07 0x20 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00
0x00 0x00 0x27 0x00}
sense-data after command:
0x72 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x0e 0x09 0x0c 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0xaf
0x00 0x6d 0x00 0x70 0x00 0x50
meaning: descriptor-sense, no error
descriptor:
code=0x09 -> ATA-Return descriptor
length=0x0c
EXTEND=0
Error = 0x00
SectorCount = 0x00
LBA_Low = 0xaf
LBA_Mid = 0x6d
LBA_High= 0x70
Device = 0
Status = DeviceReady | DeferredWriteError
The drive used should be reporting a native max lba of 0x74706daf (1.02TB), so
the expected sense data should look like:
0x72 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x0e 0x09 0x0c 0x01 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x6d 0xaf
0x74 0x70 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x50
