Hello, I remember fixing LS-120 eject in ide-floppy 3 years ago. Found this time thatit does not work with libata (2.6.28): # eject -v /dev/sda eject: device name is `/dev/sda' eject: expanded name is `/dev/sda' eject: `/dev/sda' is not mounted eject: `/dev/sda' is not a mount point eject: `/dev/sda' is a multipartition device eject: trying to eject `/dev/sda' using CD-ROM eject command eject: CD-ROM eject command failed eject: trying to eject `/dev/sda' using SCSI commands eject: SCSI eject succeeded # strace eject -v /dev/sda [...] write(1, "eject: trying to eject `/dev/sda"..., 54eject: trying to eject `/dev/sda' using SCSI commands ) = 54 ioctl(3, SG_GET_VERSION_NUM, 0xbfbaeac4) = 0 ioctl(3, SG_IO, 0xbfbaea50) = 0 ioctl(3, SG_IO, 0xbfbaea50) = 0 ioctl(3, SG_IO, 0xbfbaea50) = 0 ioctl(3, BLKRRPART, 0xbfbaea50) = 0 write(1, "eject: SCSI eject succeeded\n", 28eject: SCSI eject succeeded ) = 28 [...] It looks like everything is OK. The only problem is that the disk does not eject (only spins up). It does work when using SCSI generic device: # eject -v /dev/sg0 eject: device name is `/dev/sg0' eject: expanded name is `/dev/sg0' eject: `/dev/sg0' is not mounted eject: `/dev/sg0' is not a mount point eject: `/dev/sg0' is not a multipartition device eject: trying to eject `/dev/sg0' using CD-ROM eject command eject: CD-ROM eject command failed eject: trying to eject `/dev/sg0' using SCSI commands eject: SCSI eject succeeded The disk spins up and does some reads (most probably useless) and then ejects. Now I wonder where the problem is... -- Ondrej Zary -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-scsi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
