Firmware to spin-down HDD?

After days of messing, i've finally got my WL-500gP doing pretty much what I want. However, the one remaining annoyance is that the USB hard drive won't spin down, and to remove it I need to login to the web interface just to say "eject"... which isn't particularly helpful.

So, i'm looking for a new firmware with that implemented. I'm currently using the standard Asus FW and happy enough with that - i need to keep the ability for it to operate as a router (share the WAN connection with several wifi devices), to share a printer, to share a hard drive, and for a wired network device to be on the network too. Other than that, i'll happily lose all the other features.

Are there any firmwares out there that can do that, and that are suitable for a linux-novice (i've played a teeny bit with Linux, and can get a friend to explain bits of it over the phone, but not experienced myself).

I have read around this and other forums about the problem, and it does seem to be possible, but I can't do anything with the standard firmware, and the most common Oleg one doesn't seem to include sharing the USB drive. Also, I only have a laptop so can't directly connect the drive to an IDE interface to change the HDPARAM settings.

Any suggestions very gratefully received! :)

Here's the possible solution:
1. Download http://oleg.wl500g.info/bin/scsi-stop - this binary is able to spin-down your disk immediately after execution.
2. Place it somewhere on your router (you should be able to reach it via PATH environment variable) and make it executable.
3. You can use the script I've written which works in background and spins down disk after some period of inactivity:
http://wl500g.info/showpost.php?p=47135&postcount=10
I use it this way (I named the script scsi-stop.sh):

Code:

./scsi-stop.sh /dev/scsi/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/disc &

It automatically writes some log messages to scsi-stop.log.
It works for me. You can change it as you wish.

Thanks a lot for that.

Is it possible to do that on the standard firmware, or will I need Oleg's (or similar) to do it? I'm a little apprehensive to put the Oleg firmware on as the documentation suggests it doesn't support the USB hard drives.

I noticed I couldn't telnet into the box with the standard firmware, how would I go about putting that file on it, and your script?

Cheers

Well, this is definitely untrue.

I don't know whether my solution can work with standard firmware. I really don't think so. I recommend you to replace it.
I didn't said that the most appropriate place for scsi-stop and scsi-stop.sh is in the router's flash so you should place it somewhere in /usr/local and then do:

Code:

flashfs save flashfs commit flashfs enable

I don't think that this feature is implemented in the Asus firmware.

I am impressed that someone finally managed to find a way to spin down HDDs. I understand that Oleg was the hero (again).
Because I did not know of this solution at the time, I have bought an Western Digital MyBook Essential 250GB. This drive spins down by itself.

hi Xander,

great that you managed it!!!

I'm using your script and it works really nice.

Can you write a complete HOW-TO for the beginners?

Well, Ok, I'll write it soon. I must tell everybody that this binary is not working with several hard drives. This was reported in the similar topic in the Russian forum.
Oleg said also that this tool is a part of scsi-idle package, so you can compile it yourself. Just grab sources here: http://lost-habit.com/scsi.html

is possible to use this for wl-500gx too?
But I will wait for tutorial to beginners ;)

something new about the tutorial of spining-down disc?
Can you write here which kind of disc isn't suported?(My knowledges of Russia language are nothing :( )

Tutorial. :)

If you want to spindown your external HDD, scsi-stop tool may help you. This tool is a part of scsi-idle package. If you don't want to build the tool from sources, just use the first link to get a prebuilt binary provided by Oleg.

Since you want to spindown your disk it is not very sensible to place the binary on it. So the appropriate place is the router's flash.

Steps:
1.

Code:

cd /usr/local/sbin wget http://oleg.wl500g.info/bin/scsi-stop chmod a+x scsi-stop

2. Now you can test your disk for compatibility. Please, ensure your login shell is /bin/sh and you run scsi-stop in it. cat /etc/passwd will help you to find out.

Code:

/usr/local/sbin/scsi-stop /dev/scsi/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/disc

If your disk continues to spin then scsi-stop most likely doesn't support your ide->usb (or sata->usb) box. :(
Please, post your results and your hardware here. Let other people know whether it is supported or not. And please add the output of

Code:

cat /proc/scsi/usb-storage-0/0

and search for corresponding VendorID&ProductID in the output of

Code:

cat /proc/bus/usb/devices

3. If you were successful you maybe would want to use my script for automatic spindown:

Code:

#!/bin/sh if /usr/bin/[ $# -ne 1 ]; then /bin/echo 1>&2 "Usage: $0 <device>" exit 1 fi PERIOD=30 BOUNDARY=1200 SCSISTOP=/usr/local/sbin/scsi-stop LOGFILE=/tmp/scsi-stop.log searchstr="disk_io:" devaddr="(`/bin/ls -l $1 | /usr/bin/awk '{print($5 int($6/16))}'`)" str=`/bin/grep "$searchstr" /proc/stat | devaddr="$devaddr" /usr/bin/awk -v 'RS= |\n' -F : '{ if($1==ENVIRON["devaddr"]) print($2) }'` cooltime=0 stopped=0 while /bin/true; do /bin/sleep $PERIOD newstr=`/bin/grep "$searchstr" /proc/stat | devaddr="$devaddr" /usr/bin/awk -v 'RS= |\n' -F : '{ if($1==ENVIRON["devaddr"]) print($2) }'` if /usr/bin/[ "$newstr" = "$str" ]; then cooltime=$(($cooltime + $PERIOD)) if /usr/bin/[ $cooltime -ge $BOUNDARY -a $stopped -eq 0 ]; then $SCSISTOP $1 time=`/bin/date '+%b %e %H:%M:%S'` /bin/echo "$time: Cooled down..." >> $LOGFILE stopped=1 fi else if /usr/bin/[ $cooltime -ne 0 ]; then time=`/bin/date '+%b %e %H:%M:%S'` /bin/echo "$time: Disk first used after $cooltime seconds" >> $LOGFILE fi cooltime=0 str=$newstr stopped=0 fi done

You can change "period" and "boundary" variables. They are in seconds. With the current settings script will wake up every 30 seconds to gather information and after 20 minutes of inactivity it will stop disk.
Do:

Code:

cd /usr/local/sbin cat > scsi-stop.sh <copy and paste the script> <press Ctrl-C> chmod a+x scsi-stop.sh

To run script in background do, for example:

Code:

./scsi-stop.sh /dev/scsi/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/disc &

Notice that the script writes some log messages to /tmp/scsi-stop.log .

4. Don't forget to do

Code:

flashfs save flashfs commit flashfs enable

to save all the things in the router's flash.

spindown on USB enclosures with Cypress chip

Hi,

regarding to USB enclosures with Cypress chipset, there might be a chance with following command:

/usr/local/sbin/scsi-start 0 --pc=2 /dev/scsi/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/disc

if someone has the knowledge how to program USB access, there is a special feature in the Cypress chips to pass-through ATA commands. Details are in the AT2LP rev C datasheet might be only a few lines of code for a pro....

also the chip has a register for setting autom. spindown value on ATA-initialisation, but I never got it to work....

Spindown via cypres-usb chipset

I did some experimenting:

using my pc (ubuntu feisty fawn), I was not able to spin down the harddisk with the scsi-tools either (just as under kamikaze on a wl-500gP).

the lsusb output of the external HD is:
ID 04b4:6830 Cypress Semiconductor Corp. USB-2.0 IDE Adapter

Using the sg3-utils of ubuntu (http://sg.torque.net/sg/sg3_utils.html)
i did manage to make the disk spin down (but it didn't spin up until
after a reset of the drive)

I'm now trying to make a package out of it, but haven't finished yet.

sg_utils

I just made an package, but sadly, it doesn´t work.

on my (ubuntu 7.04) pc, it works as expected:

Code:

sg_start --stop --pc=2 /dev/sda

On my wl-500gP however, it doesn´t:

Code:

sg_start --stop --pc=2 /dev/discs/disc1/disc start stop unit: pass through os error: Invalid argument START STOP UNIT command failed

I used the exact same source for both the PC and the WL-500G, both are statically build versions, so that´s not the difference.
On http://sg.torque.net/sg/sg3_utils.html it is noted that for kernel 2.4 the /dev/sg0 interface is required. It can be made with

Code:

mknod /dev/sg0 c 21 0

But I haven´t yet figured out how to enable the support in the kernel for /dev/sgX.
I can mount and read the disk, so scsi support itself is working fine.

I´m running kamikaze with 2.4 kernel (for wifi support) Is there anyone interested in testing this for kernel 2.6 ?
Both the makefile and (compressed) .ipk file are attached.

Succes!!

so, it was actually quite easy.

Here´s a small patch to kamikaze, which selects the generic
scsi driver as well.
The ipkg packge (for kamikaze 2.4) is included as well.

Use this patch to make the scsi-kmod module, then do a

Code:

mknod /dev/sg0 c 21 0 mknod /dev/sg1 c 21 1 insmod sg

to make the devices and load the driver. Using:

Code:

sg_start -s -p 2 /dev/sg1

you can now spin down a scsi device. The scsi-start utility still doesn´t
work for me though.

After issuing the scsi-stop, I see that the HDD stops spinning but it starts again inmediately.
Does it means it's not working?

Where is your Swap located? on the HDD?
The system often reads swap data.

For me the best solution was to read all program data and swap from an usb-stick and all the other data from the hdd.

@britnet:

swap and opt on an usb stick? How long is this active until now? Any problems with the flash memory producing errors? Is it USB v1 or v2? What about performance?

background: This were my first thoughts for the WL-HDD. But i didnt do it because of USB 1.1 and the limited rw cycles of flash chips.

into my post-boot file?

And how do I spin the drive up again? Or does a user just have to try accessing a directory via SAMBA?

scsi-stop into post-boot

I have tried to put it into post-boot, but nasty things happened when i tried to do it, my router couldn't get an IP at all after i've inserted this line into post-boot.

Code:

./scsi-stop.sh /dev/scsi/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/disc &

My router was working perfectly before with samba and print sharing going on.

At the end, i had to use the recovery mode of the router to flash the firmware again. For I had completely lost the router, it's not getting an IP (I had IP reserved for it), not replying to ping, completely blocked out from me.

Now I had everything running again, but I am afraid to put that line into post-boot again. I fear I might brick the router if i do.

Would the router support usb hubs? I want to have a usb memory stick to act as a swap memory for the router so that the HDD can stay quiet at night time.
Right now I have a printer plugged in and a HDD, it would be nice if i can put a hub in and attach the USB memory stick as well.

Edit: I have put that line of code into post-boot after the first attempt (disaster), it didn't crash this time. So I must have done something really wrong back then.
This is what I put in that works
