Do you know if that was sent upstream? (In reply to comment #1) > Do you know if that was sent upstream? I don't know ... As far as I can tell this issue is not that wide spread and known yet. Could you give this scratch kernel a try when it completes and let us know if it fixes your issue? http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=4952916 Hello Josh! I did give the kernel 3.7.7-101.1.fc17 a try and it seams to work. I created two partitions, one NTFS and one LUKS with ext4. I transfered about 50GB of data at approx 24MB/s. All is still there without any data or partition corruption. I also downloading the source so I can apply the changes to my Gentoo Kernel 3.6.11 as well. I assume the fix will be released with coming kernel version 3.7.7? (In reply to comment #4) > Hello Josh! > > I did give the kernel 3.7.7-101.1.fc17 a try and it seams to work.

Well, not upstream 3.7.7, no. I haven't sent the fix to the USB developers yet. While the patch is fairly obvious, I didn't want to send it untested entirely and I don't have the hardware. Now that you've at least verified it doesn't make things worse, I'll send it upstream first thing in the morning. I'd be happy to CC you. From the Fedora side of things, I'll get it included tomorrow across all branches. Bodhi will leave a comment here when it's available in a repository. Patch sent upstream and committed to all active branches. Thank you Josh! I did the change also on my Gentoo Kernel 3.6.11 and all seams to work fine now! I can use the drive on my Fedora driven Laptop and on my Gentoo driven Workstation. I really appreciate the fast response. kernel-3.7.8-102.fc17 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 17. https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/kernel-3.7.8-102.fc17 Package kernel-3.7.8-102.fc17: * should fix your issue, * was pushed to the Fedora 17 testing repository, * should be available at your local mirror within two days. Update it with: # su -c 'yum update --enablerepo=updates-testing kernel-3.7.8-102.fc17' as soon as you are able to, then reboot. Please go to the following url: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2013-2597/kernel-3.7.8-102.fc17 then log in and leave karma (feedback). Package kernel-3.7.9-101.fc17: * should fix your issue, * was pushed to the Fedora 17 testing repository, * should be available at your local mirror within two days. Update it with: # su -c 'yum update --enablerepo=updates-testing kernel-3.7.9-101.fc17' as soon as you are able to, then reboot. Please go to the following url: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2013-2597/kernel-3.7.9-101.fc17 then log in and leave karma (feedback). I will test both this coming weekend. Since I have already valuable data on the external drive, I don't like to play Russian Roulette with my data. I have another 500GB hard drive that I can plug-in to test the kernels. I will let you know how it went. kernel-3.7.9-101.fc17 has been pushed to the Fedora 17 stable repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report. cypress works on kernel 3.7.8-102 and 3.7.9-101 worked without any issue! |
