(1) When ejecting a disk, either with the "eject /dev/sdc" command

I get the following in syslog from libata:

sdc: Spinning up disk...<3>ata4.00: exception Emask 0x0 SAct 0x0 SErr
0x0 action 0x2
        res 00/00:03:00:00:20/00:00:00:00:00/a0 Emask 0x2 (HSM violation)

ATA: abnormal status 0x7F on port 0x00010177
ata4.00: configured for PIO2
ata4: EH complete

The device status of 0x00 looks strange.

Not to me.  The device likely generated an unsolicitied interrupt,
and status==0x00 is correct for a few seconds here:  the drive is
not busy with a command, not in an error state, and not ready
for a new command since it is busy ejecting a disc.

Could you please apply the attached debugging patch for clue about what caused the HSM violation, thanks.

I'll unpack the drive and hook it up again.

Cheers
