I need to debug a problem with my SDcard driver stack (which
unfortunately I cannot yet make public, but which I hope to do soon!
Just waiting for legal review, and I think we - that is Sun - may need
to pay some fees to the SDA and MMC associations.)
Anyway, the problem I'm having is that my device, which emulates a SCSI
disk, doesn't appear to behave properly with gnome-volume-manager. If
the card is inserted at boot, it automounts and shows up on the desktop
just fine.
But if I remove and reinsert the card, no joy.
Here's the output from hal-device for this device, with the card
inserted. After removal, the storage.removable.media_available flag
toggles to flase, and when I reinsert the card it does go back to true.
I can manually mount the device as well.
In an USB slot reader the device behaves normally. If I insert/remove
the card from the USB reader gnome-volume-manager does the right thing,
and from what I can tell, there are no differences in hal-device output
between USB and my slot driver apart from the "bus" type ("scsi" instead
of "usb".) Is that the fundamental problem? Am I missing something
else? Am I barking up the wrong tree entirely?
I can't seem to find the relevant sources to gnome-volume-manager.
(Probably because I don't know my way around the JDS consolidation.)
(Note that I'm thinking of changing the inquiry data to "Solaris" for
the vendor -- "OpenSolaris" is too big -- 8 character limit -- and
"SD/MMC Slot" for the device.
In all respects this device should appear like a SCSI drive with
removable storage. The only thing is that I don't support MODE SENSE,
MODE SELECT, or VPD inquiry data. I'm probably going to change pretty
soon though.
Anyway, here's the relevant hal-device output. I'd *love* to have some
advice on where else to look to debug this problem. I don't *think* the
problem resides in the kernel, but maybe I'm overlooking something. Thanks!
