In the Kernel 2.6.20 Changelog i found the following:
[PATCH] libata: return sense data in HDIO_DRIVE_CMD ioctl
Make the HDIO_DRIVE_CMD ioctl in libata (ATA command pass through) return a
few ATA registers to userspace, following the same convention as the
drivers/ide implementation of the same ioctl. This is needed to support ATA
commands like CHECK POWER MODE, which return information in nsectors.
Does this solve our Problem? Did anybody try 2.6.20?
