I'm not sure if this should go here or to -bugs, but the other
USB-related reports put me in good company, I'm hoping...
I'm having a problem with a Kodak USB flash reader. "camcontrol
inquiry" gives me:
pass0: <Kodak CF/SD/MMC/SM 0108> Removable Direct Access SCSI-0 device
pass0: Serial Number
pass0: 1.000MB/s transfers
The device has printed on it:
Kodak Multi-Card Reader CE2A012
KP P/N 7E3771
ITEM# 20209416
P/N 680-070-563
Reproducibly, if I begin copying data to a Lexar 256MB CF card (P/N
2250, Rev. A), it works for a while, then freezes the system. The first
time this happened it was when trying to unmount the filesystem. The
second time was in the midst of copying data. Both times the system was
completely frozen; not even the keyboard LEDs toggled. Strangely, I
could connect on the SSH and FTP ports, but received no welcome banner.
The third time I modified the script I was using to copy my files to
sync and sleep after each file. This time the system seemed to freeze,
then lurch through handling several interrupts (mouse pointer moved and
a menu popped up from right-clicking), then froze again. Initially
connecting to the SSH port brought up the banner after a very long
delay, but an attempt to reproduce this was unsuccessful, and I was
unable to actually SSH in.
Mounting the filesystem synchronously doesn't seem to help. The first
time it worked, but then when I unmounted and remounted it and copied
some more files it froze midway through.
I'm running FreeBSD 5.3:
FreeBSD beaker.data-secure.net 5.3-RELEASE-p8 FreeBSD 5.3-RELEASE-p8 #1: Mon Apr
11 15:20:08 EDT 2005
root@beaker.data-secure.net:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC i386
I will be fairly busy for the next few days but later this week I should
be able to try out patches or set up a machine running a more
cutting-edge source tree, if necessary. I've got FreeBSD 5.4-RC2
building today, actually; is it likely that this will solve my problem?
Thanks in advance for any assistance.

Not certain, of course, but many problems have been fixed recently. -- Brooks -- Any statement of the form "X is the one, true Y" is FALSE.

I was able, having mounted the filesystem with no synchronization options, to copy 171MiB of data onto it and unmount. However when I re-mounted it with the same options and tried to copy 71MiB more, it again froze midway through. Everything else (X11, sound, printing, input) seems to be working perfectly with 5.4, but I did notice something new and strange with regard to umass. I still have to run "true > /dev/da0" to get the slice to show up, but now I get the following: [1042] ~ # true > /dev/da0 [1043] ~ # camcontrol rescan 0 Re-scan of bus 0 was successful [1044] ~ # ls -l /dev/da0* crw-r----- 1 root operator 4, 21 Apr 11 21:45 /dev/da0 crw-r----- 1 root operator 4, 28 Apr 11 21:45 /dev/da0s1 crw-r----- 1 root operator 4, 29 Apr 11 21:45 /dev/da0s1s1 [1045] ~ # mount_msdosfs /dev/da0s1 /mnt/cf [1046] ~ # umount /mnt/cf [1047] ~ # mount_msdosfs /dev/da0s1s1 /mnt/cf [1048] ~ # umount /mnt/cf Thoughts?
