It seems that some devices choke when the bytes after CDB contain garbage. I seem to recall that I read somewhere ATAPI device require left command bytes cleared to zero but I can't find it anywhere now. Maybe I'm just imagining. Anyways, yeah, I'll push it to upstream.


The original patch memsets the entire buffer only to copy over most of it right after. Could you amend the patch so that it memcpys first, then memsets only the remainder of the buffer? No sense wasting cpu cycles.
