This is because the packet driver tries to send down read/write
BLOCK_PC commands that don't use a bio and do not use sg lists.
As part of the patch you mentioned I added strict assertations for that
case because the scsi layer doesn't handle those anymore.
The right fix is to replace all the packet_command stuff in the packet
driver by scsi_execute() which needs to be lifted from scsi code to
the block code for that. I'll prepare a patch this weekend unless
someone beets me in doing that work.
Please try the patch below to fix the bug for now. It's not the
full way to a generic execute block pc infrastcuture but should fix
the bug for the time beeing:
Given that we now have a tester that confirms this fix can we please
put this into 2.6.20 so we avoid a regression that makes pktcdvd
entirely unusable?
Works for me using an IDE drive too. Thanks.
