+ * test-ssd-write.c
+ *
+ * Hard disk write workload: write random (or zeroed) data at random
+ * locations in a file, and optionally validate by re-reading some
+ * blocks after a while.
+ *
+ * Compile with:
+ * gcc -O2 -Wall -o test-ssd-write test-ssd-write.c
+ *
+ * Hard disks known to stop responding with this program (requires a
+ * warm machine reboot to get the drive to respond, as soft reset is not
+ * enough):
+ *
+ * Vendor         Model          Firmware   Controller     # drives tested
+ * Intel (Lenovo) SSDSC2BW180A3L LE1i       SandForce 2281 1
+ * Intel (Lenovo) SSDSC2BW180A3L LF1i       SandForce 2281 2
+ *
+ * We ensured that the problem is not coming from other parts by running
+ * this test on other SSD drives, which don't show this problem:
+ * 
+ * Vendor         Model          Firmware   Controller     # drives tested
+ * Intel          SSDSA2M160G2GC 2CV102HD   Intel          1
+ *
+ * Under Linux (Debian, Ubuntu, various kernels), after about 5 minutes,
+ * we get this result:
+ *
+ * ata1.00: exception Emask 0x0 SAct 0x1 SErr 0x0 action 0x6 frozen
+ * ata1.00: failed command: WRITE FPDMA QUEUED
+ * ata1.00: cmd 61/28:00:a8:a9:7f/00:00:02:00:00/40 tag 0 ncq 20480 out
+ *          res 40/00:00:00:4f:c2/00:00:00:00:00/00 Emask 0x4 (timeout)
+ * ata1.00: status: { DRDY }
+ * ata1.00: COMRESET failed (errno=-16)
+ * ata1.00: COMRESET failed (errno=-16)
+ *
+ * This happens with random data, zeroed data (-z), and has been tested
+ * with file sizes of 1MB, 200MB, 3.1GB and 21GB. The error happens with
+ * and without the validation (-v) option.
