Public bug reported:
On inserting a disc into my DVD-RW drive, I very often got some serious
looking I/O errors in the kernel logs. At first I put this down to
hardware failure and bought a new drive. However, I not only have the
same problem with the new drive, but the way the problem manifests
intself leads me to believe it could possibly be a kernel bug. The old
drive was a Pioneer DVD-RW DVR-108 and the new one is a Pioneer Pioneer
DVD-RW DVR-116D.
The errors only appear when I insert a disc into the drive. Not only
that but I can do things like playback DVD movies and read entire discs
(I tested using dd_rescue) without a single I/O error appearing in the
kernel logs.
The type of disc also has a bearing on the problem.
If I insert a data DVD into the drive, I don't get any errors.
If I insert a video DVD I get the following kind of errors:
[ 3130.194461] end_request: I/O error, dev sr0, sector 16039324
[ 3130.248798] end_request: I/O error, dev sr0, sector 16039320

If I insert a data CD into the drive, I don't get any errors.
Audio CDs give the following error:
[ 4267.245458] end_request: I/O error, dev sr0, sector 0
[ 4267.245477] Buffer I/O error on device sr0, logical block 0

I think this may have to do with the dialog that pops up when I insert a
disc into the drive (the one that asks which program you want to
launch), or something related to it. It seems that whenever that dialog
appears, I get the I/O errors. Maybe whatever is scanning the disc to
detect what type it is is doing something weird, resulting in the
errors?
