https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=30062 Summary: Huge amounts of "HDIO_GET_IDENTITY failed for /dev/sr0" messages during boot Product: IO/Storage Version: 2.5 Kernel Version: 2.6.38-rc6 Platform: All OS/Version: Linux Tree: Mainline Status: NEW Severity: blocking Priority: P1 Component: SCSI AssignedTo: linux-scsi@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx ReportedBy: monoped@xxxxxxxxxx Regression: Yes My system (Crux 2.7) contains an older SCSI disk, and a SCSI CD writer (Plextor). When booting into 2.6.38, I get an endless sequence of errors like ata_id[xyz]: HDIO_GET_IDENTITY failed for '/dev/sr0' The errors start when the command udevadm trigger --type=devices --action=add is executed. There are also about 50 udevd processes in the process list. The system gets extremely slow, and the only way to make it usable again is by saying 'killall udevd'. Apparently udev has an issue with the CD writer (while it handles the harddisk correctly). The same system works well with kernel 2.6.37. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug. -- 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
