For apps which know they're accessing cd or dvd (probably using sg commands), asking for TUR test after resume could be acceptable but apps getting -EIO on read(2) because of intervening suspend/resume cycle is just not right. The problem is that readiness waiting can take quite some time and under the current architecture, that can make resume take much longer or block IOs to other devices on the same port. :-( -- tejun -- 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
