Alan,

I am attaching the usbmon trace after the drive has been plugged into
the USB-2 port. Record of the drive in stall should occur around the
file offset 87808 (decimal). The log was done on the 3.12.7 kernel
without CONFIG_PM. Should I do a usbmon trace on my regular kernel with
CONFIG_PM as well?

No need.

usb 4-1.2: reset high-speed USB device number 5 using ehci-pci

It looks like the reset occurred because the computer sent an
ATA-passthru command to the disk, and the disk wasn't prepared to
handle it properly.  The firmware crashed, requiring a reset.

If anyone can explain, the command bytes in question were:

	85082e00 00000000 00000000 0000ec00

SCSI ATA PASS-THROUGH(16) command issuing the
mandatory ATA command 0xec which is IDENTIFY DEVICE.
[See SAT-3 drafts for more information on the pass-through
command.]

and the sense data was:

	7201001d 0000000e 090c0000 00005d00 01000000 0050

ATA spec says there should not (normally) be an error issued
by that command; but there was:

$ sg_decode_sense -n 7201001d 0000000e 090c0000 00005d00 01000000 0050
 Descriptor format, current;  Sense key: Recovered Error
 Additional sense: ATA pass through information available
  Descriptor type: ATA Status Return
    extend=0  error=0x0  sector_count=0x0
    lba=0x000000
    device=0x0  status=0x50

Looks reasonable at the SCSI level, not sure about the
ATA level, perhaps others can comment.

I don't know what either of these means, or even what software was
responsible for sending this command.  It appears to have come from
some user program, though, not the kernel.  Possibly something run by
udev.

Probably smartd.
The logic there is _less_ than perfect.

Guilty as charged. Silly us, fancy smartmontools issuing
mandatory ATA commands over a USB transport (MSC ?) and
expecting the device to be well-behaved :-)

Try to disable smartd and check if the issue remains.

Probably will help. Throwing away all your USB storage
devices (apart from those that do UAS(P)) would be even
more helpful (to us).

Perhaps smartmontools could do a better job of identifying
USB connected storage devices and avoid them.
