Title:
high speed data to usb disk makes the kernel think that is has been
unmounted
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
Description:
When the speed of data with a usb disk device is too high, the probes
that check if the disk still exists is missed. This makes the disk to
be unmounted and is remounted with an other drive letter (/dev/sdX).
If this disk is the root ("/"), the computer hangs.
A usb SSD-disk (4 TB) connected to a USB port reproduce this bug
easily. This has never happened with a mechanical USB-drive.
Symptoms and how to reproduce:
1) (Disk mounted as root) Computer hangs. Only way to get started
again is a hard reset.
2) (Erasing disk, not mounted as root) If you erase a disk with dd
("dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdX"), the disk disappears from the mounted
list and reappears as an other drive letter. In my case the data is
redirected to /dev/null and the fans speed up. The apparent data
transfer speed is also increased. Usually this happens after about 45
to 60 minutes.
3) Fill RAM with programs and make sure the swap to this disk is used.
