Package: util-linux
Version: 2.20.1-5.3
Severity: minor

Dear Maintainer,

Hi the designated Security Team of Debian-LTS and Debian Developers!

  The Bug that I'm here referring, I know that existed since I have discovered
the same, near the release of the latest point release "7.11" in middle of
2016. Here goes the problem:

[  107.499489] Initializing USB Mass Storage driver...

Follows here the original log from an installation of Debian 7.7 with the
filename:

( file: dmesg_(SE-208DB_-_TSBS).txt )

It's impossible to have a Read Speed Rate of "62X".

The version of the dmesg that I've for now on my Debian 7 32-bits "Wheezy"
installation is:

$ dmesg --version
dmesg de util-linux 2.20.1

The Debian 8 codename "Jessie" and the current stable "Stretch" (latest current
stable in 2018) doesn't both have this Bug in any form.

Any other needed information from me to provide here, for the Developers be
able to do a better handling of this possibly that is still present Bug on
Debian 7 (only Debian 7 GNU / Linux I've seen this problem)?

Note: The Ubuntu Distribution, in the last version that carried the Kernel
3.2-0.x, the version "12.04.1", doesn't have the same bug.

Here goes the relevant part of the log output for the Ubuntu version "12.04.1"
(codename "Precise Pangolin"), with the same Kernel as the Debian 7:

[    4.480600] scsi 0:0:0:0: CD-ROM            TSSTcorp CDDVDW SE-208DB  MF00
PQ: 0 ANSI: 0

tray
[    4.489972] cdrom: Uniform CD-ROM driver Revision: 3.20
[    4.490086] sr 0:0:0:0: Attached scsi CD-ROM sr0
[    4.490155] sr 0:0:0:0: Attached scsi generic sg1 type 5

, and comes together of the same, the complete log made on this mentioned
Ubuntu release, and which that doesn't contains that issue.

(file: dmesg_test.txt )

Threre many other variants of "TSST Corp. SE-208 (XX)" External Optical Disc
Drives (ODDs) Manufactured and sold on the Market. Here is the list of what I
found searching on the Internet (maybe the variants also have this clear Bug):


• SE-208DB/CHBS
*( Color Black -- Only (Black) - Chinese Model )

• SE-208GB/RSBS
*( Black )

• SE-208DB/BRBS
*( Black (Brazilian Model) )

• SE-208BW-BRDS
*( Black )

• SE-208AB/BRBSA
*( Black (Brazilian Model) )

• SE-208AB/TSBS
*( Black (Chinese Model (?) )

• SE-208GB/IDBS
*( Black )

• SE-208GB/RSWD
*( White )

• SE-208GB/RSBD
*( Black )

• SE-208GB/RSLD
*( Blue )

• SE-208AB/TSWS
*( Glossy White )

• SE-208AB/TSLS
*( Blue )

• SE-208DB/TSLS
*( Blue )

• SE-208DB/TSRS
*( Red )

• SE-208DB/TSWS
*( White )

• SE-208GB/RSRD
*( Red )

 Comes here together the original file with the Report, and the websites where
I encountered the reference of the Models.

Please, Developers, fix this issue on Wheezy (the Archived versions, I've not
tested yet, but don't matter here, since are not more supportted, as Wheezy
(Ubuntu 11.04, the last based on Debian Lenny, also does not have this Bug) ),
before the Debian 7 Wheezy be archived, and when the same still have the
possibility of be still fixed.


I'm sorry if I decided to make a Report of this Bug too late.. but last year I
don't was very well for to do it until December.

Question: Can Debian "borrow" the Kernel compilation for this Driver from
Ubuntu? I've a register on Launchpad.net to ask this for the Ubuntu developers,
if needed. I don't knows how the Developers will handle this Bug, I'm only
suggestioning a hypothetical possible way, if is this really a valid
possibility, indeed

Also follows a considerable portion of my Hardware Configuration (a Motherboard
ASRock N68-S3 FX and with and AMD Processor Sempron Socket 145). If requested,
I'll do a further and deep Report of my Hardware Configuration.


Best Regards.

Luis, Brazil.
