Subject: DVD+-R[W] regression in 2.6.12/13
Date: Mon, 5 Sep 2005 15:33:01 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <200509051533.01465.tennert@science-computing.de> (raw)

Hello together,

with my machine, an

"hdparm -I /dev/dvdrecorder" leads to the output:

/dev/dvdrecorder:
 HDIO_DRIVE_CMD(identify) failed: Input/output error

The kernel tells me:

[4296893.262000] hdd: drive_cmd: status=0x51 { DriveReady SeekComplete Error }
[4296893.262000] hdd: drive_cmd: error=0x04 { AbortedCommand }
[4296893.262000] ide: failed opcode was: 0xec

This happens with 2.6.12 and 2.6.13. DMA works fine, though. And burning 
CDs/DVDs seems to work fine, too.

The same hdparm command to a "normal" CD or DVD ROM drive (no writer) does not 
produces any error messages, though.

So what does this strange opcode do, and why does it fail in the latest 
kernels?

/dev/dvdrecorder is a Plextor 708A, the error also occurs with a Plextor 716A.

Best regards

Oliver
