Ok... it doesn't work for me *either* (with my E6), and that is bad,<br>
since I wrote the backend.<br>
<p>
I just built the SANE-0.71 release, with the latest version of the backend, <br>
actually (which I just mailed to David M-T.), and I am getting the following<br>
debugging chunk:<br>
<p>
[microtek] .start_scan...<br>
[microtek] .wait_ready 5...<br>
[microtek] sense: ERR_SCSICMD[microtek] wait_ready failed (0)<br>
[microtek] sense: ERR_SCSICMD[microtek] wait_ready failed (1)<br>
[microtek] sense: ERR_SCSICMD[microtek] wait_ready failed (2)<br>
[microtek] sense: ERR_SCSICMD[microtek] wait_ready failed (3)<br>
[microtek] sense: ERR_SCSICMD[microtek] wait_ready failed (4)<br>
[microtek] sense: ERR_SCSICMD[microtek] wait_ready failed (5)<br>
[microtek] sense: ERR_SCSICMD[microtek] wait_ready failed (6)<br>
[microtek] sane_cancel...<br>
<p>
This looks like it is a result of changes made to the Linux portion of<br>
sanei/sanei_scsi.c regarding checking of return codes. Here is the diff<br>
that worries me: (&lt; is 0.71, &gt; is 0.70)<br>
<p>
729,730c674<br>
&lt; if (req-&gt;cdb.hdr.result == 0<br>
&lt; &amp;&amp; (req-&gt;cdb.hdr.sense_buffer[0] &amp; 0x7f) == 0)<br>
<pre>
---
&gt; if (req-&gt;cdb.hdr.result == 0)
744c688,689
&lt; void *arg = fd_info[req-&gt;fd].sense_handler_arg;
<pre>
---
&gt; void *arg
&gt; = fd_info[req-&gt;fd].sense_handler_arg;
751c696
&lt; else if (handler)
<pre>
---
&gt; else if ((req-&gt;cdb.hdr.sense_buffer[0] &amp; 0x80) &amp;&amp; handler)
<p>
<p>
If I remove the "&amp;&amp; (req-&gt;cdb.hdr.sense_buffer[0] &amp; 0x7f) == 0" clause
and recompile, everything works A-OK.
<p>
The ChangeLog states:
<p>
* sanei/sanei_scsi.c (sanei_scsi_req_wait) [USE ==
LINUX_INTERFACE]: Always check for a non-zero error code in the
sense-buffer. The Linux sg driver guarantees that the sense
buffer is clear to zero when no sense code has been requested, so
this is safe.
<p>
I don't really know what is going on, but it looks to me like the sg driver
made some promises it doesn't keep.
<p>
<p>
For the record:
Microtek E6, AVA-1502AE scsi card, 2.0.32 kernel, Debian w/libc6 dev. env.
and
sane 0.70 worked just fine for me.
<p>
(Who knows, I bet the aha152x driver is the culprit....)
