Subject: [SCSI] Driver broken in 2.6.x?

Hi,

I've recently switched form 2.4.x kernel series to 2.6.x, and I've
encourted a problem with my old scanner card, lspci shows it as:

<begin lspci output>
00:0c.0 SCSI storage controller: DTC Technology Corp. Domex 536
Control: I/O+ Mem- BusMaster- SpecCycle- MemWINV- VGASnoop-
ParErr- Stepping- SERR- FastB2B-
Status: Cap- 66Mhz- UDF- FastB2B- ParErr- DEVSEL=medium
>TAbort- <TAbort- <MAbort- >SERR- <PERR-
Interrupt: pin A routed to IRQ 11
Region 0: I/O ports at d800 [size=32]
<end>

It worked flawlessly under 2.4 kernels, but now it hangs xsane, and logs
show this:

I hope thant you can either tell me what's wrong, or anyone coudl look
at the code and fix the problem?
As an additional note I have ScanMagic 9636 S Plus Scanner with the card
thad it was sold with.
As a side not I can tell It was working with 2.4 series, but scanning
coused the mashing to either hang for a few seconds (one or twice hang
for good), while the scanning caused the machine to become jaggy, the
music played (xmms), but the graphic wasn't working well.

I'm not subscribed so please CC to me too.

^^^ Very first thing to do is try it without the nvidia module loaded and
then reproduce the problem and post the same info from your logs again.
As long as the nvidia module is loaded most people will disregard the
bugreport since the source for the module is not available so if it has
anything to do with the problem at all it is more or less un-debugable. If
the problem can be reproduced without the nvidia module loaded then the
info is more useful.

Hi,

<cut, nVidia module tainting>
First of all, I don't have my X configured to work w/o that module, and
I don't think I can do it now.
Second of all, the 2.4.x kernel had this module too, and worked flawlessly.

Non the less, I'll try to do it.

You should be able to just use the "nv" driver instead of the "nvidia"
driver - that should be the only change you need to make in xorg.conf ...

It's probably unrelated to the problem, but being able to reproduce it
without that module will make more people take the bugreport seriously and
it will also eliminate the nvidia module as a potential cause...

Hi,

As told, I tested it w/o nvidia module loaded, here's what I found:
1. It now doesn't hang on scanning for devices.
2. It now hangs on acquiring preview, logs will follow.
2a.Not it hanged on scanning for devices again, don't know why.
3. It's true for both module loaded and w/o it.
4. xsane badly reports my scanner as Plustek 12000 or such.
5. Turning on "partial updates"(or such) in view->updates, coused whole
machine to hang up, hard reset was needed. W/o this, only xsane hanged.
Shoudln't kernel protect form that somehow?
6. Anytime xsane fails/hangs, it hangs the scanner, making it blink it's
lamp all the time, and it needt to be dissconnected form electricity to
work.
7. As a side question: any way to "reload" the whole SCSI subsystem, so
I don't hjave to reboot if I connect something new?

Still with nvidia.

An Oops with the nvidia module loaded since the last boot is simply not
debuggable for anyone except nvidia.

Em, there's also the same (w/o oops) with out that module, each of that
situations was separated by a reset. It was working well in 2.4.x so I
guess it'a a problem with the card's (00:0c.0 SCSI storage controller:
DTC Technology Corp. Domex 536) driver.

No, it works now as if it was 2.4.x series.
Now it just randomly hangs the system, ie. somewhere at the end of
scanning or suchm no nothing in logs or similar. Simply hangs. My guess
is that It shoudln't, no matter what, I always thought Linux was stable
but the current problems (CDburning problems around 2.6.9, scanner/SCSI
hanging the system) seem to contradict this. That's bad.
