Details

Description:
Reported problem is the exact same as:
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.ide/36790

And there was a submitted patch that fixed the problem but it was limited to PIONEER DVD-RW DVRTD08

This same issue has popped up again log here
https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=107847

So I made a simple patch to add this drive to the list that benefits from the patch mentioned in the first link, this solved the problem.

Additional info:
* package version(s)
* config and/or log files etc.

Steps to reproduce:
Boot archlinux with the 2.6.36 kernel from testing
   libata-fix.patch (0.4 KiB)
This task depends upon

New kernel in testing, same problem; my dvd burner is not recognized anymore. I need to rebuild the kernel appling the attached patch.

You need to send this to upstream dev to get it into the mainline.

While this is true, we can still apply this patch in the next version, it seems rather harmless. Submitting it upstream is very important though, as we cannot maintain our own kernel patches long-term.

Well I wouldn't know how to go about submitting it upstream..if its not that big of a deal could one of you submit it??

Here is a patch that includes my PIONEER DVD-RW DVRTD08A 1.50

Anyone to get this to upstream?
   libata-xferfail.patch (0.4 KiB)

It happens too with my "PIONEER DVD-RW DVR-216D, 1.07, max UDMA/66".
I guess it's a problem with all Pioneer DVR-2x sata drives?

still an issue with .39? If so please report upstream

Bug still exists in kernel26 2.6.39.3-1 It's months since I last used my CD drive, so presumably has been there in past updates, too.

This is with dmesg reporting:

ata2.00: ATAPI: PIONEER DVD-RW DVRTD08RS, 1.05, max UDMA/33

Modifying the patch to the following resolves the problem:

{ "PIONEER DVD-RW DVRTD08", "1.05", ATA_HORKAGE_NOSETXFER },

I know nothing much about patching or reporting upstream, so would be grateful for help! Thanks

I just looked through the git log, and most of these problems should be fixed in 3.0.

@Erus_Iluvatar: I'm not sure if your problem has been fixed. The quirk applies to PIONEER DVD-RW DVRTD08, but I'm not sure if it will also apply to PIONEER DVD-RW DVRTD08A (with the "A" at the end). If you still have a problem please email <linux-ide@vger.kernel.org> and let them know that the "ATA_HORKAGE_NOSETXFER" quirk must be applied to "PIONEER DVD-RW DVRTD08A" (they no longer care about the firmware versions).

@tpowa,brain0: I guess this bug can be closed again, I just wanted to let everyone know the current status.

I still experience this problem with 3.0.3, and will report to mailing list asap.

I have this problem, too with kernel 3.1.1 and a "PIONEER DVD-RW DVR-215, 1.22"...
Comment by Tom Gundersen (tomegun) - Sunday, 13 November 2011, 11:03 GMT
@matse: this is the relevant quirks list: <http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git;a=blob;f=drivers/ata/libata-core.c;h=c04ad68cb602f20f734b25130e5dfbc7ac72bfd2;hb=HEAD#l4126>.

If your drive needs to be added you should email linux-ide@vger.kernel.org .
Comment by Erus (Erus_Iluvatar) - Sunday, 08 January 2012, 12:27 GMT
@matse I send today a patch with your drive and mine :)
Comment by Tom Gundersen (tomegun) - Sunday, 08 January 2012, 13:00 GMT
@Erus: the patch looks good.
Comment by Mathias Anselmann (matse) - Sunday, 08 January 2012, 17:16 GMT
@Erus: Great! Thank you very much.
