Do you have two SATA ports on one controller, with the other one being

Not when this error happened, but the CD-ROM was connected through a
port multiplier. One time I noticed sda device appear so I mounted it
and it was the CD-ROM filesystem!
Very strange, I'm sure something went wrong there and either the SATA
host or the CDROM driver does not work well with a port multiplier.
Is there a way for you to reproduce the problem without the multiplier?
My best guess is that something in the error handling of
drivers/ata/ahci_imx.c causes a reset of the entire bus and that
triggers the other bugs. Can you instrument that error handling to
see what's going on?
Also tried a cubox
<https://www.solid-run.com/products/cubox-i-mini-computer/>, (imx6)
running Linux OpenELEC 3.14.18 #1 SMP Sun Sep 14 12:22:14 EDT 2014
armv7l GNU/Linux
Can you find out if there is a port multiplier in that machine?
I've tried with and without a multiplier. I have a port multiplier on a
development board that I can connect between the CDROM and Sabre SATA
port or connect the CDROM directly to the Sabre SATA port .
Does it list the sda device in /proc/partitions, or just the /dev/sr0?
sda is only listed in /proc/partitions if I connect up a HDD. The issue
where the CDROM filesystem mounting as sda1 has never reproduced.
I've also discovered, and it is 100% reproducible, that with the HDD and
CDROM connected using the port multiplier, the kernel never lists the
partition on the HDD. If I connect the HDD directly to the Sabre or
connect the HDD to the Sabre using the multiplier without the CDROM,
/dev/sda1 will exist.

Specifying read only (mount -o ro /dev/sr0 /tmp/test) has worked 100% of
the time on both the cubox and sabre boards.
Interesting. That would indicate that something actually tries to write
to the device on normal mount. Can you try if
mount -t iso9660 /dev/sr0 /tmp/test
avoids that problem as well? That file system should never attempt to write
to the device, so if it's the failed write that causes the host reset,
that should solve it too.
With the CDROM connected directly to the imx6 Sabre board (no
multiplier), very rarely (~1 in 40) I would get...
mount -t iso9660 /dev/sr0 /tmp/test
mount: mounting /dev/sr0 on /tmp/test failed: Invalid argument
