Can anyone please provide a few more details on this bug:

  Bug ID:   6398361
  Synopsis: Solaris root disk corrupted by suspend/resumed
  http://bugs.opensolaris.org/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6398361


Public description text is just "Please see comments."

Was this a software corruption? That is, the root filesystem became
corrupted?

Or was it a hardware corruption / defect? That is, something like
"the ATA HDD became unusable, after using the new ata/dadk/cmdk code
that implements ata power management"?



I'm asking because a "Western Digital WD1000BB" ATA HDD appears to have died
after the box was bfu'ed to current onnv-gate bits, which are containing
the changes for "6455736 ata/dadk/cmdk should support DDI_SUSPEND/DDI_RESUME"
as part of the "PSARC/2005/469 X86 Energy Star compliance" putback.
(The "Western Digital WD1000BB" ATA HDD has been frequently spinning down,
and the BIOS doesn't detect the HDD any more)


And a replacement HDD is making similar strange noises (HDD stops and
restarts) during S-x86 kernel boot time, which I've now traced to the
ATC_STANDBY_IM 0xe0 command in the ata_power() entry point.
