It's not the full way to a generic execute block pc infrastcuture but should fix the bug for the time beeing: Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@xxxxxx> Index: linux-2.6/drivers/block/pktcdvd.c =================================================================== --- linux-2.6.orig/drivers/block/pktcdvd.c 2006-12-12 11:30:45.000000000 +0100 +++ linux-2.6/drivers/block/pktcdvd.c 2006-12-12 14:23:37.000000000 +0100 @@ -765,47 +765,34 @@ */ static int pkt_generic_packet(struct pktcdvd_device *pd, struct packet_command *cgc) { - char sense[SCSI_SENSE_BUFFERSIZE]; - request_queue_t *q; + request_queue_t *q = bdev_get_queue(pd->bdev); struct request *rq; - DECLARE_COMPLETION_ONSTACK(wait); - int err = 0; + int ret = 0; - q = bdev_get_queue(pd->bdev); + rq = blk_get_request(q, (cgc->data_direction == CGC_DATA_WRITE) ? + WRITE : READ, __GFP_WAIT); + + if (cgc->buflen) { + if (blk_rq_map_kern(q, rq, cgc->buffer, cgc->buflen, __GFP_WAIT)) + goto out; + } + + rq->cmd_len = COMMAND_SIZE(rq->cmd[0]); + memcpy(rq->cmd, cgc->cmd, CDROM_PACKET_SIZE); + if (sizeof(rq->cmd) > CDROM_PACKET_SIZE) + memset(rq->cmd + CDROM_PACKET_SIZE, 0, sizeof(rq->cmd) - CDROM_PACKET_SIZE); - rq = blk_get_request(q, (cgc->data_direction == CGC_DATA_WRITE) ?
