Log file upon attaching drive

Description of problem:
After attaching to my laptop an USB flash drive the kernel log shows some errors (see attachment for full log).

Afterwards, I'm seemingly able to use it, but running live-usb-creator triggers the following error in the last stage (preparing MBR):

kernel: mmove[13296]: segfault at 0 ip 00000000004087cc sp 00007fff09f4ff68 error 4 in mtools[400000+27000]

If I attach it to an older laptop (Fedora 5 running kernel 2.6.20) there are no errors in the log.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
kernel-2.6.27.4-79.fc10.x86_64

How reproducible:
Always

Comment 1 Pete Zaitcev 2008-11-21 05:26:18 UTC
I suspect it may be related to this:
 http://marc.info/?t=122469320300008&r=1&w=2
Notice the infinite retries for the CD-ROM part of the U3 key in the
log that Gianluca attached.

Comment 2 Gianluca Sforna 2008-11-21 11:30:52 UTC
In this case, it seems we are talking about:

http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11843

and it seems they found and fixed the issue. 
If someone can (scratch) build a kernel with the patch from upstream commit 8010e06cc90367b4d3fba3b0ec3ced32360ac890 applied I'll happily test it.

Comment 3 Bug Zapper 2008-11-26 04:58:02 UTC
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 10 development cycle.
Changing version to '10'.

Comment 4 Pete Zaitcev 2009-01-16 21:25:50 UTC
I think the corret changeset is:
b60af5b0adf0da24c673598c8d3fb4d4189a15ce
 but it needs fixups for it:
3dbf6a54046052d79743822c9206af191e582ab0
4f5299ac4e3a03d5c596c00d726fa932c600609d

79ed24297236b7430d6ce0a1511ff70cf5b6015a

I think it wasn't fixed in -stable, but just in case:
does it still fail on kernel-2.6.27.9-159.fc10?

Comment 5 Gianluca Sforna 2009-01-22 15:02:25 UTC
Yes, just tested on the requested kernel and I still got:

kernel: mmove[7546]: segfault at 0 ip 00000000004087bc sp 00007fff4700a008 error 4 in mtools[400000+27000]

Comment 6 Chuck Ebbert 2009-04-15 20:43:47 UTC
Please try kernel-2.6.29.1-30 from the updates-testing repository.

Comment 7 Gianluca Sforna 2009-04-16 09:51:02 UTC
Ok. This finally fixes the issue. Thank you very much

Comment 8 Bug Zapper 2009-11-18 08:47:05 UTC
This message is a reminder that Fedora 10 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 10.  It is Fedora's policy to close all
bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained.  At that time
this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 
'version' of '10'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 10's end of life.

Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that 
we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 10 is end of life.  If you 
would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it 
against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this 
bug to the applicable version.  If you are unable to change the version, 
please add a comment here and someone will do it for you.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events.  Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.

The process we are following is described here: 
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping

Comment 9 Bug Zapper 2009-12-18 06:46:37 UTC
Fedora 10 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2009-12-17. Fedora 10 is 
no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further 
security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of 
Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
