By that I suppose he means the drive doesn't stall on the ATA > 12 IDENTIFY DEVICE command. He means that the drive doesn't report a phase error on the ATA_16 IDENTIFY DEVICE command, and consequently xhci-hcd doesn't have to try (and fail) to reset the port. > Ok, so I should probably just include this snippet from the original > kernel log? > > Mar 24 18:51:29 js-workstation kernel: [ 126.731371] usb-storage: Command (unknown command) (16 bytes) > Mar 24 18:51:29 js-workstation kernel: [ 126.731372] usb-storage: 85 08 2e 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 40 ec 00 > Mar 24 18:51:29 js-workstation kernel: [ 126.731378] usb-storage: Bulk Command S 0x43425355 T 0x2f L 512 F 128 Trg 0 LUN 0 CL 16 > Mar 24 18:51:29 js-workstation kernel: [ 126.731379] usb-storage: usb_stor_bulk_transfer_buf: xfer 31 bytes > Mar 24 18:51:29 js-workstation kernel: [ 126.731543] usb-storage: Status code 0; transferred 31/31 > Mar 24 18:51:29 js-workstation kernel: [ 126.731544] usb-storage: -- transfer complete > Mar 24 18:51:29 js-workstation kernel: [ 126.731546] usb-storage: Bulk command transfer result=0 > Mar 24 18:51:29 js-workstation kernel: [ 126.731547] usb-storage: usb_stor_bulk_transfer_sglist: xfer 512 bytes, 1 entries > Mar 24 18:51:29 js-workstation kernel: [ 126.731719] usb-storage: Status code -32; transferred 0/512 > Mar 24 18:51:29 js-workstation kernel: [ 126.731723] usb-storage: clearing endpoint halt for pipe 0xc0008280 > Mar 24 18:51:29 js-workstation kernel: [ 126.731727] usb-storage: usb_stor_control_msg: rq=01 rqtype=02 value=0000 index=81 len=0 > Mar 24 18:51:29 js-workstation kernel: [ 126.732152] usb-storage: usb_stor_clear_halt: result = 0 > Mar 24 18:51:29 js-workstation kernel: [ 126.732153] usb-storage: Bulk data transfer result 0x2 > Mar 24 18:51:29 js-workstation kernel: [ 126.732154] usb-storage: Attempting to get CSW... > Mar 24 18:51:29 js-workstation kernel: [ 126.732155] usb-storage: usb_stor_bulk_transfer_buf: xfer 13 bytes > Mar 24 18:51:29 js-workstation kernel: [ 126.732430] usb-storage: Status code 0; transferred 13/13 > Mar 24 18:51:29 js-workstation kernel: [ 126.732431] usb-storage: -- transfer complete > Mar 24 18:51:29 js-workstation kernel: [ 126.732432] usb-storage: Bulk status result = 0 > Mar 24 18:51:29 js-workstation kernel: [ 126.732434] usb-storage: Bulk Status S 0x53425355 T 0x2f R 512 Stat 0x2 > Mar 24 18:51:29 js-workstation kernel: [ 126.732435] usb-storage: -- transport indicates error, resetting Yes, that would be best.
