However, a bug in the routine causes it to skip the command after doing the initialization. Also, the routine does not return an appropriate error code if either the initialization or the command fails. As a result of the first bug, the first command (a SCSI INQUIRY) is not carried out. The results can be seen in the system log, in the form of a warning message and empty or garbage INQUIRY data: Apr 18 22:40:08 notebook2 kernel: scsi host6: scsi scan: INQUIRY result too short (5), using 36 Apr 18 22:40:08 notebook2 kernel: scsi 6:0:0:0: Direct-Access PQ: 0 ANSI: 0 This patch fixes both errors.
