Subject:   too many segments in DMA table error
Message-ID:  <86itkozxlm.fsf@basilisk.locus>

Not sure if this is a bug or not. Trying this:

 $ cd /cdrom
 $ find . -print | xargs md5

I get the following error messages on the console:

 ata0-master: too many segments in DMA table
 acd0: READ_BIG - ILLEGAL REQUEST asc=21 ascq=00 error=04

and if I leave it, the machine falls over, and reboots.

I tracked it down to a faulty ISO image, caused by a version of
mkisofs(8) that I built for 4.2-STABLE; when I rebuilt it and repeated
the exeercise, there were absolutely no problems.

Q. Should I submit a bug report ?
