Hi,

I'm facing an issue putting an embedded system to sleep while a Lacie external USB hard disk is connected. Relevant kernel messages that occur at the attempt are:

[   13.834731] PM: Sending message for entering DeepSleep mode
[   13.846575] sd 0:0:0:0: [sda] Synchronizing SCSI cache

[   13.907507] PM: Some devices failed to suspend, or early wake event

detected

What happens is that in sd_sync_cache(), scsi_execute_req_flags() returns 0x08000002, so driver_byte(res) evaluates to DRIVER_SENSE and host_byte(res) is DID_OK, which is an unhandled case that leads to -EIO eventually.

I have admittedly not much clue about the SCSI layer, so I wonder what would be the best way to fix this. Should DID_OK just be handled as non-error condition in the switch? Should the suspend call chain ignore such errors from sd_sync_cache()?

I'm open to suggestions and happy to test patches.

Thanks,
Daniel

The Sense Key and ASC values indicate that the drive did not understand the SYNCHRONIZE CACHE command. A usbmon trace would verify this; see the instructions in Documentation/usb/usbmon.txt.

Assuming that really is what happened, we have to decide how to handle the situation.

Hi,

Sorry for the long, primarily holiday-related delay on this.

Ok, this is the usbmon trace that I captured when the system goes to suspend with the USB storage media connected but unmounted:

And that's the sense data, confirming SK=5 and ASC=20. This means the drive doesn't understand the command.

There's more stuff later on in the usbmon trace that I don't understand. But if everything else works okay, it won't matter.
