Basically: git clone https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git cd linux Try to copy the running kernel's config: zcat /proc/config.gz > .config If that didn't work, try copying the config file from /boot: cp /boot/config-$(uname -r) .config Since the patch is only one line, you can apply it manually now. (Note that there are three spaces between "BD-RW BDR-207M".) make olddefconfig make -j$(nproc) sudo make modules_install sudo make install Looking at the logs in the bug report, you do have a AMD Green Sardine AHCI controller. The commit 1527f69204fe ("ata: ahci: Add Green Sardine vendor ID as board_ahci_mobile") added the PCI vendor and device id to the list of supported AHCI controllers using the low power board version: { PCI_VDEVICE(AMD, 0x7901), board_ahci_low_power }, /* AMD Green Sardine */ Before the commit in question, your AHCI controller relied on this catch-all entry: /* Generic, PCI class code for AHCI */ { PCI_ANY_ID, PCI_ANY_ID, PCI_ANY_ID, PCI_ANY_ID, PCI_CLASS_STORAGE_SATA_AHCI, 0xffffff, board_ahci }, which does not enable/allow any low power mode at all. Now, I do think that low power modes *should* work with this AHCI controller. Most likely, it is simply the optical drive that does not work well when the HBA initiates a low power mode on the link. You should be able to test this theory by adding libata.force=nolpm on the kernel command line on a recent (non-working) kernel, low power modes should then be disabled, and the drive should work again. (You can press 'e' in grub to temporarily add something to the kernel command line, and then ctrl+x to boot.) But the proper fix is probably to add a quirk for you device, either: + { "PIONEER BD-RW BDR-207M", NULL, ATA_HORKAGE_NOSETXFER }, or + { "PIONEER BD-RW BDR-207M", NULL, ATA_HORKAGE_NOLPM }, Kind regards, Niklas
