https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=215879 Theodore Tso (tytso@xxxxxxx) changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Status|NEW |RESOLVED Resolution|--- |INVALID --- Comment #6 from Theodore Tso (tytso@xxxxxxx) --- Note that what you found in your stack exchange search was from five years ago, and described a workaround in a Linux kernel versiojn 4.10. In addition to manually disabling APST (a quirk for a very specific Samsung SSD which has since been added to newer kernels), other suggestions in the stack exchange or linked web pages included " removing SDD, blowing air into M.2 connector and reinserting it back" and "switching off the 'UEFI Secure Boot' setting in the BIOS" All of which is to say that the symptom is caused by an I/O error, and there are many potential causes for an I/O error --- everything from missing quirks (to work around broken firmware / hardware design) to bad connections to misconfigured BIOS settings to just plain broken hardware. This is why blindly web searching based on symptoms can often lead to misleading results; an abdominal pain could mean anything from indigestion, to a pulled muscle, to an infected appendix, to a heart attack. It's also why I am not fond of people finding bug reports on the web and assuming that anything that has the same symptom must have the same root cause..... -- You may reply to this email to add a comment.
