I guess, may bad example messed up discussion. sorry.
>From begin:
I have USB-connected card-reader (Sony Memory Stick).
It connected as umass0 (ehci), then as da0.
It can't be unplugged. (on-board notebook device)
Problem:
When I change card (it was not mounted) da0 device does not detect
media change and following mount fails.
Workarounds (I know three at this moment):
- kldunload umass; kldload umass - the ugliest, will affect other
umass devices.
- cat /dev/null > /dev/da0 before mount - GEOM hacking=20
(also I do not like do cat into device with data)
- camcontrol detach da0; camcontrol rescan all - requires CAM patch
So, I am asking about solution, how it is supposed to work,=20
I guess, like with CD, there is should not be special exercises after
card change.
Probably my card-read is too stupid to send any media change
notifications, how to test it ?
Another, probably related question, is there way to detect card
insertion/removal ?

It is not disconnected physically, just card removed.

6-CURRENT.
