Description Stefan Richter 2008-12-13 02:58:12 UTC
A PL-3507 based CD-RW always had the following bug.  The new firewire driver stack is confirmed to be working well with this CD-RW.  The old drivers show this bug especially --- but not only --- if there is a TI PHY in the mix (TI based card or TI based hub).

The Sony PCGA-CRWD1 bundled with the Sony Vaio PCG-VX71P laptop shows the bug as a regression from 2.6.24 (Ubuntu 8.04) to 2.6.27 (Ubuntu 8.10).  The new firewire drivers have not yet been tested by the PCG-VX71P owner.  The Vaio laptop has a TI link and PHY; the SBP-2 chip in the PCGA-CRWD1 is not known.

A successful workaround with both CD-RWs is to
  - unload the ohci1394 if already present,
  - plug in/ power on the CD-RW,
  - load ohci1394.

Another "workaround" at least with the PL-3507 based CD-RW is to use the new firewire drivers instead of the classic ieee1394 drivers.

I categorize this bug as blocker of bug 10046 although I will look into fixing it as time permits.

I categorize it as a regression even though it is only a regression with Sony PCGA-CRWD1 but not with the PL-3507 based CD-RW.
Comment 1 Stefan Richter 2008-12-16 23:49:55 UTC
Very similar downstream report:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/279342
Comment 2 Stefan Richter 2008-12-17 10:50:57 UTC
Report at https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/279342 is with a Western Digital My Book [...] of which the precise model is not reliably known (USB 2.0 + FireWire 400, hence /perhaps/ based on the Prolific PL-3507 IDE bridge, although WD My Book appear to be SATA nowadays) --- on an Agere FW323 controller.

My PL-3507 based CD-RW misbehaves on an Agere FW323 exactly like it does on TI controllers.  Same result:  ieee1394 + sbp2 fail as in the log in comment 0, firewire-core + firewire-sbp2 succeed.

This is a subset of bug 12572.
