This is probably because hal probes the DVD drive every two seconds looking for media changes. However that's not supposed to cause rpm_resume to be called for the host unless runtime PM is allowed for the DVD drive, which it isn't according to your listings below. So there's a bug somewhere. > host6 is pata_atiixp with an: > > 00:14.1 IDE interface: ATI Technologies Inc SB700/SB800 IDE Controller > (prog-if 8a [Master SecP PriP]) > > # grep . /sys/class/scsi_host/host6/power/* > /sys/class/scsi_host/host6/power/async:enabled > grep: /sys/class/scsi_host/host6/power/autosuspend_delay_ms: Input/output error > /sys/class/scsi_host/host6/power/control:auto > /sys/class/scsi_host/host6/power/runtime_active_kids:0 > /sys/class/scsi_host/host6/power/runtime_active_time:0 > /sys/class/scsi_host/host6/power/runtime_enabled:disabled > /sys/class/scsi_host/host6/power/runtime_status:unsupported > /sys/class/scsi_host/host6/power/runtime_suspended_time:0 > /sys/class/scsi_host/host6/power/runtime_usage:0 This is the wrong directory (the class device, not the device itself). You should look at /sys/class/scsi_host/host6/device/power instead.
