Subject: [PATCH v2 2/2] usb-storage: Add compatibility quirk flags for G-Technologies G-Drive
Date: Fri, 18 May 2018 21:50:16 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1526705416-12573-3-git-send-email-agk@godking.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1526705416-12573-1-git-send-email-agk@godking.net>
The "G-Drive" (sold by G-Technology) external USB 3.0 drive
hangs on write access under UAS and usb-storage:

The proposed patch adds compatibility quirks. Because the drive requires two
quirks (one to work with UAS, and another to work with usb-storage), adding this
under unusual_devs.h and not just unusual_uas.h so kernels compiled without UAS
receive the quirk. With the patch, the drive works reliably on UAS and usb-
storage.
(tested on NEC Corporation uPD720200 USB 3.0 host controller).
