After update to 3.8 dmesg is spammed with: kernel: [ 280.272094] 3w-xxxx: scsi8: Unknown scsi opcode: 0x41 kernel: [ 280.272107] sd 8:0:0:0: [sda] Unhandled error code kernel: [ 280.272110] sd 8:0:0:0: [sda] kernel: [ 280.272112] Result: hostbyte=0x04 driverbyte=0x00 kernel: [ 280.272114] sd 8:0:0:0: [sda] CDB: kernel: [ 280.272116] cdb[0]=0x41: 41 00 10 09 aa 22 00 00 08 00 kernel: [ 280.272123] end_request: I/O error, dev sda, sector 269068834 kernel: [ 280.272130] sda6: WRITE SAME failed. Manually zeroing. [..] This goes on and on. I am not familiar with block layer or scsi drivers, so I don't know if this is an issue with the 3w-xxxx driver or the block layer. I've hacked around this by reverting "block: Make blkdev_issue_zeroout use WRITE SAME" (579e8f3c7b2ecf7db91398d942d76457a3ddba21), as this hw doesn't support write_same anyway. -- 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
