Not enough info.

What usb controller do you have ? Which usb driver ?
ohci ? uhci ? ehci ? usb 2.0 ?

I reported this a long time ago on the usb lists, but
never got down to the bottom of the problem (my fault for
not following thru). However if i disable the usb 2.0
driver (i.e. not loading the ehci driver) which my external
storage is connected to, then everything works fine - albeit
it much more slowly. Appears to be a timing issue on some
usb <-> ide controller chips since not everyone is seeing this.

nforce2 with the ehci-driver.

I also reported this problem there, but didn't get a reply at all.

Well, I only see this with 2.4.22-pre/rc, so this is definitly not a 
hardware-problem, it runs just fine with 2.4.21 at 9950 kB/s.
And running my backup on USB 1.1 is not an option, way to slow.

Sounds exactly like the problem i was having. However the logical
thought behind it was that it must be either 1) a hardware specific
problem, or 2) a generic usb driver problem. Since only a handful
of people seen the problem, then this logically leads one to the
conclusion that our usb<->ide devices have some marginal timing
issues that are being triggered with the new code.

Well in my case i opted for the slow backup rather than the no backup
if i wanted to move forward with the new kernels.

The usb-storage people should look into this (I've copied them on this.)

Hint, hint...

I am still having problems with modular IDE. 
When trying to insmod ide-detect.o, I get:

/lib/modules/2.4.22-rc1/kernel/drivers/ide/ide-detect.o: 
  unresolved symbol ide_add_generic_settings


Thank you,
Erik

Still the same USB-problem I reported for pre5 and pre10:

kernel: hub.c: new USB device 00:02.2-2, assigned address 4
kernel: scsi1 : SCSI emulation for USB Mass Storage devices
kernel:   Vendor: Maxtor 6  Model: Y120L0            Rev: 0811

kernel:  /dev/scsi/host1/bus0/target0/lun0: p1
kernel: WARNING: USB Mass Storage data integrity not assured
kernel: USB Mass Storage device found at 4

Now I start 'dump':

kernel: usb_control/bulk_msg: timeout
kernel: usb_control/bulk_msg: timeout
kernel: usb_control/bulk_msg: timeout
kernel: usb.c: USB disconnect on device 00:02.2-2 address 4

channel 0 id 0 lun 0
kernel: 192
kernel:  I/O error: dev 08:01, sector 81655440
lots of I/O errors following

Works fine with 2.4.21.
Could someone please fix that before 2.4.22 becomes stable?

Please CC me, thanks
