ata: libata-scsi: Set the RMB bit only for removable media devices
The SCSI Removable Media Bit (RMB) should only be set for removable media, where the device stays and the media changes, e.g. CD-ROM or floppy. The ATA removable media device bit is obsoleted since ATA-8 ACS (2006), but before that it was used to indicate that the device can have its media removed (while the device stays). Commit8a3e33cf92
("ata: ahci: find eSATA ports and flag them as removable") introduced a change to set the RMB bit if the port has either the eSATA bit or the hot-plug capable bit set. The reasoning was that the author wanted his eSATA ports to get treated like a USB stick. This is however wrong. See "20-082r23SPC-6: Removable Medium Bit Expectations" which has since been integrated to SPC, which states that: """ Reports have been received that some USB Memory Stick device servers set the removable medium (RMB) bit to one. The rub comes when the medium is actually removed, because... The device server is removed concurrently with the medium removal. If there is no device server, then there is no device server that is waiting to have removable medium inserted. Sufficient numbers of SCSI analysts see such a device: - not as a device that supports removable medium; but - as a removable, hot pluggable device. """ The definition of the RMB bit in the SPC specification has since been clarified to match this. Thus, a USB stick should not have the RMB bit set (and neither shall an eSATA nor a hot-plug capable port). Commitdc8b4afc4a
("ata: ahci: don't mark HotPlugCapable Ports as external/removable") then changed so that the RMB bit is only set for the eSATA bit (and not for the hot-plug capable bit), because of a lot of bug reports of SATA devices were being automounted by udisks. However, treating eSATA and hot-plug capable ports differently is not correct. From the AHCI 1.3.1 spec: Hot Plug Capable Port (HPCP): When set to '1', indicates that this port's signal and power connectors are externally accessible via a joint signal and power connector for blindmate device hot plug. So a hot-plug capable port is an external port, just like commit45b96d65ec
("ata: ahci: a hotplug capable port is an external port") claims. In order to not violate the SPC specification, modify the SCSI INQUIRY data to only set the RMB bit if the ATA device can have its media removed. This fixes a reported problem where GNOME/udisks was automounting devices connected to hot-plug capable ports. Fixes:45b96d65ec
