Yet more info:
eject -s sends the following SCSI packet command to the sbp/ipod device:
1b 00 00 00 02 00 with a direction of DMA_NONE
eject -r results in the same via the CDROMEJECT translator in
scsi_cmd_ioctl(), but with a direction of DMA_TO_DEVICE. Thats what crashes
it - looks like its trying to set up a DMA transfer for 0 bytes or something.
I just added a really horrible hack to the start of sbp2_send_command() to
check, as follows:
if (*cmd == 0x1b) {
SCpnt->sc_data_direction = 3;
}
Now, eject -r works perfectly. Though thats obviously not a good way to fix
it :)
