Details

Description: hot-plugging an eSATA drive does not work, dmesg shows no activity after plugging the drive in, scsiadd does not see it too. If the drive is connected at boot, it becomes available. Attached are dmesg from a boot with the drive attached (ata3.00: ATA-9: WDC WD40EZRX-00SPEB0, 80.00A80, max UDMA/133) and lspci output. Not sure what kernel update broke this. Same machine running Gentoo with custom-configured 4.16.7 kernel has no problems with the drives hotplug.

   dmesg (88.9 KiB)
   lspci (9.4 KiB)

For me the bug exists since Kernel 4.15

the following command does not work:
# scsiadd -s

but the following command detects the hot-plugged eSATA drive:
# echo 0 0 0 | tee /sys/class/scsi_host/host*/scan
(wiki: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/udev#Detect_new_eSATA_drives)

Automatic detection, like it behaved in 4.14 is gone.

I cannot reproduce the issue. Is it still valid for you?
