I.e. cut-and-paste from dmesg. Here are some: messages.1:Apr 28 14:08:09 zbox5 kernel: [ 268.800536] hdparm: sending ioctl 330 to a partition! messages.1:Apr 28 14:08:09 zbox5 kernel: [ 268.800547] hdparm: sending ioctl 330 to a partition! messages.1:Apr 28 14:08:57 zbox5 kernel: [ 316.413944] hdparm: sending ioctl 330 to a partition! messages.1:Apr 28 14:08:57 zbox5 kernel: [ 316.413951] hdparm: sending ioctl 330 to a partition! messages.1:Apr 28 14:20:10 zbox5 kernel: [ 989.525085] hdparm: sending ioctl 330 to a partition! messages.1:Apr 28 14:20:10 zbox5 kernel: [ 989.525093] hdparm: sending ioctl 330 to a partition! The in <linux/hdreg.h> say this about 330: ... /* 0x330 is reserved - used to be HDIO_GETGEO_BIG */ ... So it's HDIO_GETGEO_BIG, which doesn't exist in newer kernels. I wonder when that got removed? Minor userspace breakage there. hdparm issues it first as a backward-compatibility thing, before falling back to the even-more obsolete HDIO_GETGEO, which curiously enough is still in modern kernels.
