Dear USB Driver module maintainers,
I am trying to use an external SSD drive ( Samsung 850 Pro 256GB )
with Linux in it, and booting it through an external USB drive. The
environment itself works totally fine and I got not critical issues
using it as a daily driver.
Although sometimes, the system "hangs" very rarely, but in an annoying
fashion that makes a bit sluggish the experience, which translates to
weird dmesg errors like these ones:
https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/441668/debian-usb3-hdd-uas-i-o-errors
Initially I thought as I'm using an USB 3.0 adapter[0], that maybe the
UAS driver was buggy, but at my own surprise I found out actually that
the UAS driver is not used at all, although the adapter supports it
fine.
I am currently using it on a Dell Latitude 7480, and when I use
`lsusb` I see that the device is recognized as `JMicron JMS561U`
which, by spec, supports UAS ( see
http://www.jmicron.com/PDF/brief/jms561u.pdf ).
I am wondering if this device was already tested by anyone of you
already, and if not, if I can be a tester for a patch to enable UAS on
this adapter.
Thank you very much for the support, as an attachment (
sabrent-uas-logs.md ) you may find all the logs you may need to
further help me debugging this.
