In my case it results in a completely tits-up machine. CPU stuck somewhere spinning with local interrutps disabled. If you see the log output I sent, I'm suspecting this might be because this BSG brainfart has exposed underlying bugs in IDE or SCSI. Note that I saw literally 20,000 lines of output in the bit which I snipped, so something has gone pretty wild in the handling of these bogus commands. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-ide" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
