 # Changelog

+## 0.16.1 (2026-04-30)
+
+### Unified progress display for sweep and patch
+
+- Patch passes now show `bytes_good / disc_total` as GB (grows when sectors are recovered), with pass progress `%` using `work_done / work_total` (always advances). `Xs unreadable` declines as data is recovered. Same UI for all pass types.
+
+## 0.16.0 (2026-04-30)
+
+### IOKit registry-based drive enumeration, BSD name matching, reverse patch default
+
+- **`shim_open_exclusive`** now matches the correct `IOBDServices` for the requested BSD name. Walks all IOBDServices entries in the IOKit registry, matches child IOMedia `"BSD Name"` property. Falls back to IOMedia parent walk, then first-match. Fixes multi-drive systems.
+- **`shim_list_drives`** (new): registry-based drive enumeration. Reads IOBDServices `"Device Characteristics"` for vendor/model/firmware and child IOMedia for BSD name. Zero SCSI, zero exclusive access, zero unmounts. Fixes the enumeration blast that unmounted every disk on the system.
+- **`list_drives()`** and **`find_drives()`** rewritten to use `shim_list_drives`. No longer iterates `/dev/disk0..15` opening exclusive SCSI on each.
+- **`patch_internal`** defaults `reverse: true`. Sweep jumps forward with escalating gaps, so NonTrimmed ranges have good data at their tail. Reverse patch hits good data first, converges on actual bad block boundaries.
+
+## 0.15.1 (2026-04-30)
+
+### Fix damage-jump detection, fix dispatch covers_disc check
+
+- Damage-jump tuning: `DAMAGE_WINDOW=16`, `DAMAGE_THRESHOLD_PCT=12%` (was 50/25%). Old params were too diluted by good reads between sparse failures; new params trigger on 2nd scattered failure.
+- `Disc::copy()` dispatch: `covers_disc` now checks `map.total_size() == disc_size` (byte-for-byte, not approximate). Fixes false sweep dispatch when mapfile exists but doesn't cover full disc.
+- Sweep resume: when dispatched from existing mapfile with NonTried, passes `resume: true`.
+
+## 0.15.0 (2026-04-30)
+
+### Multipass dispatch rewrite, speed control on damage zone entry/exit
+
+- `CopyOptions { decrypt, multipass, progress, halt }`. `Disc::copy()` auto-detects sweep vs patch from mapfile state: no mapfile → sweep, NonTried → sweep with resume, only NonTrimmed/NonScraped/Unreadable → patch, clean → no-op.
+- `Disc::mapfile_for()`: `/dev/null` output → `/tmp/<disc_name>.mapfile`, otherwise `mapfile_path_for(path)`.
+- Speed control: damage zone entry → `set_speed(0x0000)` (minimum), 16 consecutive good reads → `set_speed(0xFFFF)` (maximum). Drive manages optimal speed in clean sections.
+- `SET CD SPEED` SCSI command via `SectorReader::set_speed()` (default no-op, Drive impl sends SCSI).
+
+## 0.14.0 (2026-04-30)
+
+### Damage-jump algorithm replaces probe, bridge degradation detection
+
+- Damage-jump algorithm: when damage threshold exceeded in sliding window, jump ahead by `256×batch×multiplier` sectors. Doubles multiplier on each jump. Zero-fills gap as NonTrimmed.
+- `ecc_sectors()`: returns ECC block size per disc format (32 for UHD, 16 for BD, 16 for DVD).
+- Bridge degradation detection: NOT READY with sense key 2/ASC 0x04/ASCQ 0x3E triggers 10s cooldown, up to 5 times before treating as bad sector.
+
+## 0.13.43 (2026-04-29)
+
+### Pass 1 transport-failure recovery loop
+
+- Transport failure (USB bridge crash) no longer kills the entire rip.
+- Autorip re-discovers the drive after USB re-enumeration and resumes
+  from the mapfile. Up to 10 attempts.
+- `Error::is_scsi_transport_failure()` now matches DiscRead with
+  status 0xFF (bridge crash) in addition to ScsiError.
+- DriveSession tracks device_path for re-discovery.
+
+## 0.13.42 (2026-04-29)
+
+### Fix: transport failure skips instead of aborting
+
+- Transport failure (USB bridge crash) now skips the failed ECC block
+  (marks NonTrimmed) and continues. 3 consecutive transport failures
+  still abort the copy. Previously, a single transport failure killed
+  the entire rip.
+
+## 0.13.41 (2026-04-29)
+
+### Debug logging for sector-0 regression diagnosis
+
+- Add debug logging to Drive::read and Disc::copy first reads.
+- No functional changes.
+
+## 0.13.40 (2026-04-28)
+
+### Pass 1 pure ECC-block sweep, transport-failure abort, mapfile-based recovery
+
+This release reworks the sector-copy pipeline to handle unreliable USB-SATA
+bridges (notably the Initio INIC-1618L) that crash on MEDIUM ERROR retries.
+
+**Disc::copy() — Pass 1 (ECC-block sweep):**
+- Reads `batch` sectors (default 32 = 1 BD ECC block = 64 KB).
+- Success → mark Finished. MEDIUM ERROR → zero-fill, mark NonTrimmed, advance.
+- Transport failure (host_status=7) → abort immediately, return error.
+- No single-sector reads, no retry, no state machine in Pass 1.
+
+**Disc::patch() — Pass 2+ (single-sector recovery):**
+- Reads NonTrimmed sectors one at a time with pause between failures.
+- Succeeds → mark Finished. Fails → mark Unreadable (or leave for next pass).
+- Multi-pass: caller runs patch repeatedly until 0 recovered.
+
+**CopyOptions simplified:**
+- Removed `skip_forward`, `cautious_pause_ms`, `BPT1_EXIT_THRESHOLD`.
+- Fields: `decrypt`, `resume`, `batch_sectors`, `skip_on_error`, `progress`, `halt`.
+
+**Other fixes since 0.13.26:**
+- `open()` just opens the device — no side effects. `drive_has_disc()` is a
+  standalone TUR, not a probe sequence.
+- `enumerate_sg_names()` skips unreadable `/sys` type files.
+- SCSI sense data preserved in DiscRead errors (status + key + ASC/ASCQ).
+- MapStats splits `bytes_pending` into `nontried` / `retryable`.
+- Wallclock rip budget — halt after max(disc_runtime_secs, 3600).
+- Patch instrumentation: counters for reads_ok/err, writes_ok/err, finished/unreadable.
+- `as_encoded_bytes()` replaces `as_bytes()` for portable OsStr handling.
+- Removed inline retry/reset from Drive::read — orchestration layer handles recovery.
+- Removed all `(internal)` references from public code.
+
+## 0.13.26 (2026-04-27)
+
+### Extend DiscRead with SCSI status/sense for 30% wedge diagnostics
+
+`Error::DiscRead` now carries `status` (SCSI status byte) and `sense`
+(ScsiSense with key/asc/ascq). Previously this info was discarded,
+showing only `E6000: {sector}`. Now shows:
+- `E6000: {sector} 0x{status}/0x{sense_key}/0x{asc}`
+- Enables recovery loop to distinguish recoverable errors from drive wedge
+- Enables programmatic handling: `if status == 0xFF { reset } else { retry }`
+
+### Error display shows up to 5 fields
+
+Display format changed from `E{sector}` to `E{code}: sector status/key/asc`.
+
+## 0.13.25 (2026-04-27)
+
+### Drop dead `Drive::device_path_owned()`
+
+The method was marked `// NOTE: Debug aid — remove after fd issue is
+resolved` and the fd issue closed in 0.13.6. Use `device_path()` (which
+returns `&str`) instead. Removing it clears a `cargo clippy -- -D
+warnings` red on Linux CI that the Mac toolchain doesn't catch.
+
+### Pre-commit gate uses CI's exact toolchain
+
+`(internal)/scripts/precommit.sh` (new) runs `cargo +1.86 fmt
+--check`, `cargo +1.86 clippy -- -D warnings`, and `cargo +1.86 test
+--tests` across all 5 freemkv crates. Mirrors each repo's
+`.github/workflows/ci.yml` step-for-step. Use it as a pre-commit hook
+or run by hand before pushing — green here means green CI.
+
+The Mac default toolchain is newer (1.94) and its clippy rejects
+slightly different sets of lints than 1.86 — running locally without
+pinning misses lints CI catches. The script forces 1.86 so drift
+between local and CI ends.
+
+## 0.13.24 (2026-04-27)
+
+### MapStats: split `bytes_pending` into `bytes_nontried` + `bytes_retryable`
+
+`MapStats.bytes_pending` aggregates `NonTried` (sectors Pass 1 hasn't
+reached) + `NonTrimmed` + `NonScraped` (sectors flagged for Pass 2-N
+retry). UIs that wanted a "MAYBE / will retry" bucket were stuck
+showing the entire unread disc as "Maybe" at pct=0.
+
+v0.13.24 keeps `bytes_pending` for back-compat and adds two granular
+fields:
+
+  - `bytes_nontried` — Pass 1 hasn't read these yet
+  - `bytes_retryable` — `NonTrimmed + NonScraped`, Pass 2-N will retry
+
+`bytes_pending == bytes_nontried + bytes_retryable` (invariant).
+
+### cargo fmt cleanup
+
+Picks up the `cargo fmt --check` lint failure that's been red on
+`main` since v0.13.18 (long format-string layouts the local rustfmt
+folded differently from CI's runner).
+
+## 0.13.23 (2026-04-27)
+
+### Stop discarding the drive's SCSI sense data
+
+Through the entire 0.13.x line, every CHECK CONDITION reply from the
+drive (the standard way SCSI reports a sector failure) was being
+collapsed into a synthetic `status=0xFF, sense_key=0` "transport
+wedge" sentinel and the real sense data was thrown away. Live tracing
+on the BU40N reading Dune 2 on 2026-04-27 confirmed it: the drive was
+returning `host_status=0, driver_status=8, status=2, exec_elapsed_ms=1416`
+on every bad sector — a clean CHECK CONDITION carrying full sense
+data — and the library was misclassifying it as a wedge and bailing.
+
+Root cause: `scsi/linux.rs`'s wedge check was `host_status != 0 ||
+driver_status != 0`. SG's `DRIVER_SENSE` bit (0x08) is set on every
+CHECK CONDITION reply just to flag "sense buffer is populated" — it's
+not a transport failure on its own. Pre-0.13.23 we conflated the two
+and silently lost every drive-reported error reason. macOS and Windows
+backends had the same shape: they extracted `sense_key` only, dropping
+ASC/ASCQ.
+
+### What 0.13.23 changes (API)
+
+- **Linux**: mask `DRIVER_SENSE` before treating `driver_status` as a
+  transport-layer failure. Real transport failures (`host_status != 0`
+  or any non-SENSE bit set) still synthesise the `0xFF` sentinel.
+- **`Error::ScsiError`** carries `sense: Option<ScsiSense>` instead of
+  flat `sense_key`/`asc`/`ascq`. `sense=None` ⇔ transport failure (no
+  SCSI status delivered). `Some(ScsiSense {…})` ⇔ drive replied with
+  sense data. Removes the `0xFF`/`sense_key=0` magic-number coupling.
+- **`ScsiSense`** is a public type with predicate methods on it —
+  `is_marginal`, `is_medium_error`, `is_hardware_error`,
+  `is_unit_attention`, `is_data_protect`, `is_not_ready`,
+  `is_illegal_request`, `is_aborted_command`. Callers route on the
+  structured fields rather than raw key comparisons.
+- **`Error::scsi_sense()`** / **`Error::is_scsi_transport_failure()`** /
+  **`Error::is_marginal_read()`** convenience predicates on `Error`.
+  `is_marginal_read` is the high-level "should `Disc::copy` engage
+  hysteresis on this error?" check.
+- **SCSI protocol constants** (`SCSI_STATUS_GOOD`,
+  `SCSI_STATUS_CHECK_CONDITION`, `SCSI_STATUS_TRANSPORT_FAILURE`,
+  `SENSE_KEY_*`) moved from `error.rs` to `scsi/mod.rs` where they
+  belong alongside `SCSI_INQUIRY`, `SCSI_READ_10`, etc.
+- **macOS** + **Windows** backends parse the full sense triple too.
+  Same code path on every platform — a regression in `parse_sense`
+  would surface on all three OSes simultaneously.
+- **`parse_sense`** replaces `parse_sense_key` (returns the full
+  triple). Inline sense-format tests (descriptor 0x72/0x73 vs fixed
+  0x70/0x71, short-buffer, VALID-bit masking, unknown response codes)
+  now also exercise ASC/ASCQ extraction at the right offsets.
+
+### Disc::copy + Disc::patch sense-aware dispatch
+
+Both passes now bail immediately when a read fails with a sense class
+that retry can't help (HARDWARE ERROR, DATA PROTECT, UNIT ATTENTION,
+NOT READY, ILLEGAL REQUEST, real transport failure, kernel `IoError`)
+rather than burning hysteresis cycles on a doomed loop. Marginal-read
+sense (MEDIUM ERROR, ABORTED COMMAND, RECOVERED ERROR, NO SENSE)
+engages hysteresis as before. New `phase=bail` trace event records
+the bail reason.
+
+`Disc::patch`'s `wedged_threshold` (50 consecutive failures) remains
+as defense-in-depth for chains of marginal failures, but a single
+non-marginal sense now short-circuits it.
+
+### Behavioural impact
+
+For damaged-disc rips on the BU40N this unblocks v0.13.22's
+hysteresis: pre-fix, the misclassified "wedge" caused `Disc::copy` to
+exit before hysteresis could engage, so `bytes_good` froze at the bad
+zone. Post-fix the drive's CHECK CONDITION replies flow through the
+normal path → hysteresis drops to bpt=1 → marginal sectors are
+recovered or marked Unreadable. Calibration data
+(`docs/audits/2026-04-26-bisect-on-fail-empirical-findings.md`) shows
+~86 % of marginal-region sectors recover at bpt=1 on this drive.
+
+## 0.13.22 (2026-04-26)
+
+### Replace bisect-on-fail with hysteresis state machine (Block ↔ Single)
+
+Live test on Dune 2 v0.13.21 showed bisect-on-fail recovered every
+recoverable sector, but spent ~30 sec per damaged 60-block (paying a
+~5 sec kernel timeout at every bisection level). Each level descended
+log₂(60) ≈ 6 times on the failing branch.
+
+Replaced with a two-state hysteresis machine in `Disc::copy`:
+
+```
+Block(batch):
+  read(batch) ok    → write, advance, stay Block
+  read(batch) fail  → switch to Single, retry SAME range at bpt=1
+
+Single:
+  read(1) ok    → write, consecutive_good++
+                  if consecutive_good >= BPT1_EXIT_THRESHOLD:
+                     switch to Block, reset counter
+  read(1) fail  → mark NonTrimmed, consecutive_good = 0
+```
+
+`BPT1_EXIT_THRESHOLD = 10_000` sectors (= 20 MB of clean data).
+Calibrated from the 2026-04-26 BU40N empirical run; tunable.
+
+Per-block cost on a 60-sector damaged block with 1 bad sector:
+- Bisect (v0.13.21): ~30 sec (5 s × 6 levels)
+- Hysteresis (v0.13.22): ~10 sec (5 s bpt=batch fail + 59 × 1 ms good
+  + 1 × 5 s bad)
+
+Plus inside a damaged cluster spanning many 60-blocks, hysteresis
+pays the bpt=batch fail cost ONCE on entry; bisection paid it every
+60 sectors. For Dune 2's ~1248-sector boundary cluster that's ~21
+fewer 5-sec waits = ~100 sec saved.
+
+Telemetry: new `phase=mode_change` trace event with `from`, `to`,
+`lba`, `consecutive_good`. Replaces v0.13.21's `phase=bisect`. The
+v0.13.21 worklist DFS is gone — single iterative `for s in 0..count`
+on the failure path.
+
+Test rename:
+`test_disc_copy_bisect_recovers_via_single_sector_reads` →
+`test_disc_copy_hysteresis_recovers_via_single_sector_reads`. Same
+synthetic BU40N-pattern reader; same 100% recovery expectation.
+
+## 0.13.21 (2026-04-26)
+
+### Fix: Disc::copy bisect-on-fail (replaces skip-forward)
+
+Empirical live-hardware testing on the LG BU40N (see
+`(internal)/docs/audits/2026-04-26-test-plan-audit.md` and the
+TEST_PLAN.md run log) revealed that the drive often **fails
+multi-sector READ commands** in damaged regions but **succeeds when
+asked one sector at a time**. The old skip-forward strategy responded
+to multi-sector failures by jumping up to 1 % of the disc forward,
+marking everything in between as bad — losing **clean territory**
+sandwiched between bad sectors.
+
+`Disc::copy` now bisects on read failure: split the failed block in
+half, retry each half, recurse down to single-sector reads. Sectors
+the drive can read individually are recovered in Pass 1; only sectors
+that fail at bpt=1 are marked NonTrimmed for the patch passes.
+
+Empirical results on Dune 2 UHD on the BU40N:
+- Old algorithm: 25 GB read in Pass 1, then ~6 GB skip-forwarded;
+  retry passes failed to recover most of the skipped zone.
+- New algorithm: ~99 % of disc recovered in Pass 1; only the truly
+  unreadable cluster (~14 % of a 2 MB hot zone) marked NonTrimmed.
+
+Implementation: stack-based DFS in the inner read loop. log₂(batch)
+levels max — for the default 60-sector batch, 6 levels. Multi-pass
+machinery is untouched: Pass 2 .. N walk the mapfile and become fast
+no-ops when bisect already recovered everything. New integration test
+`test_disc_copy_bisect_recovers_via_single_sector_reads` validates
+the behavior against a synthetic BU40N-pattern reader.
+
+### Fix: READ_TIMEOUT_MS bumped 1.5 s → 10 s (caller-side)
+
+The 0.13.20 SCSI rewrite gave the kernel mid-layer the ability to run
+its own ABORT/RESET escalation. But callers (`Drive::read` for the
+fast path) still passed `timeout_ms=1500`. Cold-start seek on the
+BU40N can take ~1.5 s, which means **normal reads were being
+cancelled at the boundary**, triggering the kernel mid-layer's
+escalation, which the Initio bridge couldn't drain — resulting in the
+firmware-level wedge that only physical replug recovers.
+
+Live-hardware probe data:
+- Sustained sequential read: 3–7 ms
+- Cold-start seek + read: up to ~1500 ms
+- Successful ECC recovery: 1.6–2.6 s
+- Confirmed unreadable: 3.6–8.8 s (kernel timeout)
+
+10 s is calibrated to cover every legitimate read with margin while
+still short-circuiting truly bad sectors before the kernel runs full
+LUN/BUS/HOST reset. `READ_RECOVERY_TIMEOUT_MS` (60 s) unchanged.
+
+## 0.13.20 (2026-04-26)
+
+### Architecture: SCSI transport — sync blocking SG_IO
+
+`scsi/linux.rs` rewritten from async `write/poll/read + 1.5 s timeout
+ close-on-timeout in bg thread` to a single synchronous blocking
+`ioctl(fd, SG_IO, &hdr)`. The old pattern abandoned slow-but-alive
+commands faster than the drive could drain its internal queue,
+deepening the BU40N wedge. Per the audit at
+`(internal)/docs/audits/2026-04-26-scsi-architecture-research.md`,
+no reference project (MakeMKV / sg_dd / ddrescue) does what we did —
+all use sync blocking SG_IO with 8-60 s timeouts and let the kernel's
+mid-layer (`scsi_eh.rst`) run ABORT TASK / LUN RESET / BUS RESET /
+HOST RESET escalation internally.
+
+What changed:
+- `SgIoTransport::execute()` is one syscall now. Caller-supplied
+  `timeout_ms` is honored by the kernel, which does its own
+  ABORT/RESET escalation if the device times out.
+- Errors check `host_status` and `driver_status` (both 0xFF-synthesised
+  for the caller) in addition to `status` — transport-level failures
+  no longer slip through as Ok.
+- Sense-key parser handles both descriptor format (0x72/0x73, key at
+  byte 1) and fixed format (0x70/0x71, key at byte 2).
+- Deleted the `fd_recovery: Arc<AtomicI32>` field, the bg close+open
+  thread, and the stale-fd swap dance. `scsi/linux.rs` shrank from
+  ~720 to ~520 lines.
+- Module doc rewritten to reflect the new architecture.
+
+### Architecture: parity strip on macOS + Windows
+
+`scsi/macos.rs` and `scsi/windows.rs` had `try_recover()` —
+userspace handle-recovery on task failure. Same anti-pattern as the
+Linux fd-recovery dance, removed for the same reason: the kernel
+mid-layer already runs its own escalation. Errors bubble up directly.
+
+Cleanups:
+- `MacScsiTransport`: `try_recover()` deleted, `bsd_name` field
+  deleted (was only used by try_recover), fail-fast device_iface guard
+  deleted (no longer null'd mid-session).
+- `SptiTransport`: `try_recover()` deleted, `wide_path` field deleted,
+  INVALID_HANDLE guard deleted.
+
+### API cleanup: drop `Drive::reset` and `find_drives`
+
+Two duplicates removed from the public surface:
+
+- `Drive::reset()` — escalating recovery (STOP/START unit + eject +
+  reinit). Per the audit, userspace shouldn't escalate; the kernel
+  already does. Only one internal caller (`wait_ready` line 195),
+  which now just keeps polling TUR for 60 iterations. No external
+  consumer used it.
+- `pub fn find_drives() -> Vec<Drive>` — opened N drives just to throw
+  most away. Only caller was `find_drive()` itself, which now uses
+  `discover_drives()` directly. No external consumer used it. For
+  lightweight enumeration (UI sidebar etc.) use `scsi::list_drives()`.
+
+`lib.rs` re-export of `find_drives` removed.
+
+## 0.13.19 (2026-04-26 — held, never released)
+
+Held in development; folded into 0.13.20.
+
+## 0.13.18 (2026-04-26)
+
+### Sync release — no functional changes
+
+Bumped to satisfy the unified-versioning rule. Actual fix is in autorip
+(`web.rs` two-bar UI — separates per-pass and total progress bars +
+their own text rows so the rip dashboard is readable again).
+
+## 0.13.17 (2026-04-26)
+
+### Sync release — no functional changes
+
+Bumped to satisfy the unified-versioning rule. Actual fix is in autorip
+(hot-plug rescan in the drive poll loop — autorip now picks up
+unplug/replug events without a container restart).
+
+## 0.13.16 (2026-04-26)
+
+### Architecture: single `Progress` trait + `PassProgress` struct
+
+Pre-0.13.16 the rip API leaked internal mapfile concepts (`pos`,
+`bytes_good`, `work_done`, `bytes_pending`, `Finished`/`NonTrimmed`)
+into per-pass positional callbacks. Consumers reinvented the math each
+time, and the v0.13.15 UI bug surfaced exactly because of this — autorip's
+web JS computed `progress_pct` from `bytes_good` while the backend
+computed from `pos`, silent drift, frozen UI bar.
+
+This release replaces both `Disc::copy::on_progress` and
+`Disc::patch::on_progress` `Fn(u64, u64, u64)` callbacks with a single
+`Progress` trait and `PassProgress` struct (new `progress` module).
+
+```rust
+pub struct PassProgress {
+    pub kind: PassKind,            // Sweep | Trim {reverse} | Scrape {reverse} | Mux
+    pub work_done: u64,
+    pub work_total: u64,
+    pub bytes_good_total: u64,
+    pub bytes_total_disc: u64,
+}
+
+pub trait Progress {
+    fn report(&self, p: &PassProgress);
+}
+
+impl<F: Fn(&PassProgress)> Progress for F { ... }
+```
+
+Both `CopyOptions::on_progress` and `PatchOptions::on_progress` are
+renamed to `progress: Option<&dyn Progress>`. Closure callers update
+trivially; struct callers gain a clean named-field shape with no
+positional-arg confusion.
+
+`PassKind` carries the semantic (sweep vs trim vs scrape vs mux) so
+consumers can label phases without reinventing detection logic. The
+`Mux` variant is reserved for v0.13.17 when the mux pipeline emits
+progress; not yet emitted by libfreemkv code.
+
+`Disc::patch` reports `Trim {reverse}` for retry passes with
+`block_sectors >= 2` and `Scrape {reverse}` when `block_sectors == 1`
+(the per-sector final pass). Direction comes through `reverse: bool`.
+
+## 0.13.15 (2026-04-26)
+
+### Breaking: `on_progress` callback gains `pos` parameter
+
+Both `CopyOptions::on_progress` and `PatchOptions::on_progress` now take
+`Fn(bytes_good: u64, pos: u64, total_bytes: u64)`. The new `pos` parameter
+is the current sweep / retry position. Pass 1 callers should display
+`pos / total_bytes` for the "% swept" UI bar — `bytes_good` only counts
+clean reads (Finished sectors) and freezes during skip-forward bad zones,
+which made every previous version's UI look hung at the bad-zone boundary.
+This was the v0.13.9 stall-guard origin bug.
+
+Live trace from v0.13.14: Pass 1 hit a Dune 2 bad zone at 24 GB and
+appeared "stuck" for 14 minutes per autorip's UI (`bytes_good = 23.97 GB`
+unchanged). Disc trace events showed `pos` actually advanced from 25.8 GB
+to 70 GB during that window — Pass 1 was 83 % through the disc, marking
+the post-bad-zone NonTrimmed via skip-forward exactly as designed. The
+display lied. Now consumers can show the truth.
+
+### Feature: `PatchOptions::reverse` for reverse-direction retry passes
+
+When set, `Disc::patch` walks bad ranges from highest LBA to lowest, and
+within each range reads sectors back-to-front. Hypothesis (per the live
+v0.13.14 test): drives that wedge after a forward read of a bad sector
+read fine when approached from end-of-disc backward — most of the
+post-bad-zone NonTrimmed range is actually clean data the drive could
+have read on Pass 1 had it not been wedged. autorip alternates F/R
+across retry passes (Pass 2 = reverse half-batch, Pass 3 = forward
+quarter-batch, ...).
+
+### Feature: `PatchOptions::wedged_threshold` early-exit
+
+When > 0, `Disc::patch` exits early if it sees this many consecutive
+read failures with zero successful reads in the same pass. Saves the
+wallclock budget for productive grinding when the drive has clearly
+wedged on the bad zone for this pass — a future pass with a different
+direction or block size may still recover. Reported via new
+`PatchResult::wedged_exit: bool`.
+
+### Trace: `patch_start` and `patch_done` events
+
+`freemkv::disc` target now emits `patch_start` (block_sectors, recovery,
+reverse, wedged_threshold, num_ranges) and `patch_done`
+(blocks_attempted, blocks_read_ok, blocks_read_failed, wedged_exit,
+halted, bytes_recovered) at Disc::patch boundaries.
+
+## 0.13.14 (2026-04-25)
+
+### Sync release — no functional changes in libfreemkv
+
+Bumped solely to satisfy the unified-versioning rule. The actual fix in
+this release is in autorip: the tracing subscriber now enables
+`freemkv::scsi=trace,freemkv::disc=trace` so the v0.13.13 instrumentation
+events actually surface in `/api/debug`. Without that filter override the
+trace events were silently dropped by the default `libfreemkv=warn` rule.
+
+## 0.13.13 (2026-04-25)
+
+### Telemetry: instrument the rip pipeline for in-flight diagnosis
+
+v0.13.12 shipped Fix 1+2+4 + cross-platform parity but a live test on Dune 2
+showed Pass 1 sat for 14 minutes with `bytes_good=0` while the inner loop
+appeared to iterate (the throttled `on_progress` log fired every 78s). The
+async fd_recovery design at §7 said each `execute()` call should bound at
+~1.5 s on poll timeout, with subsequent calls returning `DeviceNotFound` in
+microseconds until recovery completes. Observed reality contradicts that:
+each iteration takes ~60 s, not microseconds. Without trace-level telemetry
+at the SCSI + Disc::copy boundaries we can't diagnose where the time goes.
+
+This release adds the telemetry. No behavior change; instrumentation only.
+
+- New dep: `tracing = "0.1"`. Per project docs, debug/trace logging is permitted
+  in libfreemkv (the no-English rule applies to errors, not telemetry).
+  Consumers (autorip) wire a tracing subscriber and pipe events into the
+  JSONL debug log automatically.
+- `SgIoTransport::execute` (Linux): trace events at every state transition
+  (entry, recovery_swap_ok, recovery_pending, write_ok / write_err, poll_done,
+  timeout_spawn_recovery, scsi_err, read_err, ok). Each event includes the
+  opcode and elapsed timing. The bg recovery thread also traces close_ms +
+  open_ms so we can see if the kernel is hanging close+open.
+- `Disc::copy`: trace events at copy_start, outer_loop, region_enter, every
+  100 inner-loop iterations (iter_progress with pos / region_end / skip_size /
+  bytes_good / read_ok_count / read_err_count / last_read_ms /
+  copy_elapsed_ms), and copy_done.
+- All trace events use `target` strings `freemkv::scsi` and `freemkv::disc`
+  so consumers can filter by subsystem.
+
+### What this enables
+
+- A live rip will now produce a SCSI event stream visible at
+  `/api/debug?n=N&q=freemkv::scsi`. We can finally answer: "is the inner
+  loop iterating slowly because each call is slow, or fast with the bg
+  thread blocked?"
+- `bg_recovery_done` events with `close_ms` / `open_ms` reveal whether the
+  kernel really takes 60 s for close+open on a wedged Initio bridge.
+
+## 0.13.12 (2026-04-25)
+
+### Fix: delete stall guard from `Disc::copy` (RIP_DESIGN.md §6 Fix 1)
+
+The v0.13.9 stall guard at `disc/mod.rs` exited Pass 1 early when
+`bytes_good` was flat for `stall_secs` (default 120s). This violated the
+ddrescue model: Pass 1 must sweep end-to-end, marking failed reads
+NonTrimmed for Pass 2 retry. The guard caused Pass 1 to bail at 30% on
+Dune 2 with 56 GB still NonTried, leaving Pass 2 nothing useful to do.
+
+- Deleted the stall-guard state vars and the `if cur_good != ...
+  break 'outer;` block.
+- Deleted `CopyOptions::stall_secs` field — no longer wired.
+- Replaced the broken regression test
+  `test_disc_copy_stall_detection_triggers_skip_forward` with
+  `test_disc_copy_completes_full_disc_with_failing_reader` (asserts Pass 1
+  walks to end-of-disc with everything NonTrimmed when reads keep failing)
+  and added `test_disc_copy_halts_promptly_on_failing_reader` (halt flag
+  honored within 2s mid-skip-forward).
+
+### Fix: async SCSI transport recovery (RIP_DESIGN.md §6 Fix 2 / §7)
+
+`SgIoTransport::execute` (Linux) previously did close-in-background +
+synchronous open-on-main-thread on poll timeout. The kernel serialized
+the main-thread `open()` against the in-flight `close()` of the same
+`/dev/sg*`, blocking the rip thread up to ~60s per timeout.
+
+- Added `fd_recovery: Arc<AtomicI32>` field. On poll timeout, both
+  `close(old_fd)` AND `open(new_fd)` run in a background thread; the new
+  fd is published to `fd_recovery`. Returns Err immediately. Main thread
+  is never blocked beyond the `poll()` budget (~1.5 s).
+- Top of `execute()`: if `self.fd < 0`, swap from `fd_recovery`. If
+  recovery is also pending, return `DeviceNotFound` and let the caller's
+  retry loop come back later.
+- Drop drains any pending `fd_recovery` so the fd doesn't leak.
+- Stripped the v0.13.9 stall-guard narrative comment that justified
+  the deleted behavior.
+
+### Fix: cross-platform SCSI parity — Windows + macOS recovery (RIP_DESIGN.md §15.1)
+
+Per the platform parity rule (no stubs), Windows and macOS now have the
+same observable recovery contract as Linux:
+
+- `SptiTransport` (Windows): added `try_recover()` that calls
+  `CloseHandle` + `CreateFileW` synchronously after a failed
+  `DeviceIoControl`. Stripped English error string ("run as
+  administrator") from `open()`. Fixed the ms→s timeout truncation
+  (1500ms now rounds up to 2s, was 1s).
+- `MacScsiTransport` (macOS): added `try_recover()` that releases the
+  IOKit interface (`RELEASE_EXCLUSIVE` + `com_release`) and re-acquires
+  via the new `acquire_device_iface()` helper. Stores `bsd_name` so
+  recovery can re-call `find_scsi_service`.
+- All three platforms: top of `execute()` returns `DeviceNotFound`
+  immediately if a prior `try_recover()` left the transport in an
+  invalid state. Drop guards null'd-out interfaces.
+- Send is auto-derived on all three (i32 fd / isize HANDLE / IOKit
+  interface ref are Send-safe); explicit comments document the
+  intentional implicit Send and the absence of Sync.
+
+### Fix: instrument `Disc::patch` — diagnostic counters (RIP_DESIGN.md §6 Fix 4)
+
+`PatchResult` now reports `blocks_attempted`, `blocks_read_ok`,
+`blocks_read_failed`. Pass 2's "100 minutes recovered 0 bytes" mystery
+(Dune 2) becomes diagnosable from these counters: distinguish "drive
+returned Ok but write/record dropped data" from "every read was Err for
+the entire range" without instrumenting from outside the lib.
+
+### Fix: honor `PatchOptions::full_recovery`
+
+The field was previously read into `let _ = opts.full_recovery;` and
+ignored — `read_sectors(..., true)` was hardcoded. Now routed to
+`read_sectors(..., opts.full_recovery)`. Behavior unchanged for
+default callers (which pass `true`).
+
+### Doc: `CopyOptions::batch_sectors` accuracy
+
+Doc comment said "Defaults to 32 sectors (64 KB)". Updated to describe
+the actual production path: callers should resolve via
+`detect_max_batch_sectors(device_path)` (kernel-reported sysfs value,
+typically 60 sectors / ~120 KB on the BU40N). The 32-sector internal
+fallback is only reached when `batch_sectors=None AND skip_forward=true`.
+
+## 0.13.11 (2026-04-25)
+
+### Fix: revert SgIoTransport timeout path to keep transport alive
+
+v0.13.10 changed `SgIoTransport::execute` to set `fd = -1` on a poll
+timeout (no reopen on the main thread, since that would serialize
+against the spawned close()). The intent was to escape the 60-s
+blocking reopen.
+
+The cost was too high: a single transient poll timeout permanently
+killed the transport. Live test on Dune 2 (post-replug):
+- Pass 1 ran for **45 ms** then returned with 0 GB good and 80 GB
+  pending.
+- The first SCSI READ timed out, fd went to -1, every subsequent
+  read returned `DeviceNotFound` instantly, Disc::copy raced through
+  the entire disc skip-forwarding in milliseconds.
+- Pass 2 inherited the dead Drive and was equally useless.
+
+Revert: spawn close + reopen on main thread (the v0.13.5/8
+behavior). Yes the main-thread open() may block up to ~60 s while
+the kernel completes the abandoned command — but the v0.13.9
+`Disc::copy` stall guard already caps catastrophic stalls at 120 s
+of `bytes_good` non-advance. Net: per-timeout cost is ~60 s, but
+Pass 1 cleanly bails out within 120 s of any wedge, and Pass 2 has
+a working Drive to retry NonTrimmed ranges with `recovery=true` +
+30 s timeouts.
+
+The integration test for the stall guard
+(`test_disc_copy_stall_detection_triggers_skip_forward`) continues
+to pass — the guard fires regardless of which transport-recovery
+strategy is in play.
+
+## 0.13.10 (2026-04-25)
+
+### Version sync — no functional changes
+
+Sync bump for the autorip-side fix in 0.13.10 (Pass 1 batch reporting).
+
+## 0.13.9 (2026-04-25)
+
+### Fix: Disc::copy silent stall + SgIoTransport reopen-after-timeout serialization
+
+Two correlated fixes for a hang observed live on the LG BU40N during a
+v0.13.8 rip of Dune: Part Two. At ~30 % progress through Pass 1
+(disc → ISO), `bytes_good` froze for 10+ minutes with `errs=0`,
+no error surfaced, drive not wedged.
+
+Root cause: `SgIoTransport::execute` (linux.rs) attempted to recover from
+a `poll()` timeout by spawning a background `close()` of the old fd and
+opening a fresh `/dev/sg*` fd on the main thread. On Linux, opening the
+SAME device while a prior fd is mid-close serializes via the kernel's
+per-device state lock — so the fresh `open()` blocks for as long as the
+close does (until the kernel completes the in-flight CDB). This undid
+the userspace 1.5 s timeout: each timed-out read added 60+ s to the
+next iteration. From `Disc::copy`'s perspective, reads kept returning
+Err slowly, the skip-forward path advanced `pos` but never `bytes_good`.
+
+Fixes:
+- `SgIoTransport::execute` no longer reopens on timeout. Spawns the
+  close, sets `self.fd = -1`, returns Err immediately. Subsequent
+  calls fail with `DeviceNotFound` (already gated at line 248).
+  Caller (Drive) is invalidated until reopened. Pass 2's
+  `Disc::patch` would need a fresh Drive; that's a v0.14 follow-up.
+- `Disc::copy` adds a stall guard. New `CopyOptions::stall_secs:
+  Option<u64>` (default 120 s). If `bytes_good` doesn't advance for
+  the threshold, breaks the outer loop with `complete: false,
+  bytes_pending > 0` so the caller's retry path picks up.
+
+Tests: new `test_disc_copy_stall_detection_triggers_skip_forward` in
+`tests/integration_progress_and_halt.rs` proves the guard fires within
+the configured threshold.
+
+Other:
+- Cosmetic: warning text "rip thread did not drain within 35s" updated
+  to 60s (matches the v0.13.8 timeout bump).
+
+## 0.13.8 (2026-04-25)
+
+### Version sync — no functional changes
+
+Sync bump for the ecosystem. 0.13.8 carries autorip-side fixes:
+post-stop "error" leak (halt-aware Err handling in Pass 1/2+),
+60 s drain timeout, and a structural spawn_rip_thread helper.

+
+### Version sync — no functional changes
+
+Sync bump for the ecosystem. All four freemkv crates (libfreemkv,
+freemkv CLI, bdemu, autorip) always share a version number; 0.13.7

+register for stop-drain).
+
+## 0.13.6 (2026-04-25)
+
+### Inline retry/reset stripped from `Drive::read`; `BytesRead` now emitted
+
+Two related changes that close the loop on the BU40N wedge work from
+0.13.1–0.13.4 and on the long-standing autorip "0 KB/s, 0%" UI bug.
+
+**`Drive::read` is now single-shot.** The phase 1 / 2 / 3 retry loop
+(reset → reopen → repeat) inside `Drive::read` is gone (~80 lines
+deleted). `recovery=true` only bumps the per-CDB timeout to 30 s;
+`recovery=false` keeps the 1.5 s timeout. On a failed read the
+function returns `Err(DiscRead)` immediately. Per the BU40N
+post-mortem, every USB / SCSI reset path tested in 0.13.1–0.13.3
+resets the bridge but not the drive firmware, and the inline
+reset+reopen *was* the wedge primitive itself — issuing it from
+inside `Drive::read` produced multi-minute hangs and made the wedge
+class harder to surface to the user. The correct retry layer is
+`Disc::patch`'s outer multi-pass loop, which is unaffected. A stuck
+drive now surfaces as a clean `DiscRead` to the caller, who can
+prompt physical replug.
+
+**SCSI reset surface trimmed.** `SgIoTransport::reset` (Linux) drops
+the `SG_SCSI_RESET` ioctl and the STOP / START UNIT escalation; it
+keeps the kernel `SG_IO` state flush plus `ALLOW MEDIUM REMOVAL`.
+`MacScsiTransport::reset` is removed entirely (was open + drop +
+sleep, no SCSI). The top-level `scsi::reset` /
+`scsi::reset_with_timeout` / `scsi::reset_blocking` family is
+removed — no callers remain after the `Drive::read` strip.
+
+**`EventKind::BytesRead` now emitted.** The variant was declared in
+0.13.0 but never fired. `DiscStream::fill_extents` now emits
+`BytesRead { bytes_read_total, total_extents_bytes }` after every
+successful sector read, so consumers in direct (no-mapfile) mode can
+drive a real-time progress bar without polling `output.bytes_written`.
+Multi-pass mode continues to use `Disc::copy`'s `on_progress`
+callback unchanged. Drives the autorip per-device live progress UI.
+
+`Drive::checked_sleep` is removed (only used by the recovery loop);
+`Drive::sleep_until_halted` is `#[cfg(test)]`-only; `Drive::emit` is
+retained because `BytesRead` uses it.
+
+### Tests
+- New `tests/integration_progress_and_halt.rs` (5 tests): `BytesRead`
+  emission, `Disc::copy` `on_progress` regression guard, halt aborts
+  copy, Drop safety, `FileSectorReader` round-trip.
+- 233 unit tests + 5 integration tests pass.
+
+### Net diff
+~80 lines deleted, ~20 added.
+
+### Version sync
+0.13.6 ecosystem release (libfreemkv + freemkv + bdemu + autorip all

+
+## 0.13.5 (2026-04-25)
+
+### Version sync — no functional changes
+Sync bump for the ecosystem. All four freemkv crates (libfreemkv,
+freemkv CLI, bdemu, autorip) always share a version number; 0.13.5
+carries autorip-side fixes (stop-is-reset, startup staging sweep).
+
+## 0.13.4 (2026-04-25)
+
+### Wedge recovery rolled back + sysfs identity fallback
+
+**What changed.** The in-library USB / SCSI wedge-recovery escalation
+added in 0.13.1 – 0.13.3 has been removed. `drive_has_disc` now returns
+the raw TUR result (or the `0xFF` poll-timeout wedge error) directly to
+the caller. `scsi::usb_reset()` / `usb_reset_with_timeout()` /
+`DEFAULT_USB_RESET_TIMEOUT_SECS` and the per-platform
+`SgIoTransport::usb_reset` / `MacScsiTransport::usb_reset` /
+`SptiTransport::usb_reset` are gone. All three platform backends pass
+transport errors through verbatim, keeping the public
+`list_drives` + `drive_has_disc` contract symmetric
+(Linux / macOS / Windows).
+
+**Why.** Production testing against the LG BU40N USB BD-RE (the drive
+that drove the whole 0.13.1–0.13.3 recovery push) showed:
+- `SG_SCSI_RESET`, `STOP UNIT` + `START UNIT`, and `USBDEVFS_RESET`
+  all succeed at the USB transport layer (kernel logs
+  `usb 3-2: reset high-speed USB device`, device re-authorises).
+- But the drive firmware *below* the USB bridge stays locked: no
+  LUN enumerates on the fresh `scsi_host`, TUR never succeeds,
+  `/dev/sg*` never reappears.
+- Also tried (outside the lib): `/sys/bus/usb/devices/<port>/authorized`
+  toggle, `usb-storage` driver unbind/rebind, forced SCSI host rescan.
+  All same outcome.
+
+Only physical unplug-replug (or host reboot) clears this wedge class.
+The library was logging 2-minute-per-tick escalation cycles for nothing,
+and consumers had no way to surface "drive needs physical intervention"
+to users because the escalation was masking the real failure. Upper
+layers (autorip, CLI) now see the wedge error directly and prompt the
+user.
+
+A breadcrumb in `scsi/linux.rs::drive_has_disc` catalogues every
+recovery method tried and points to git tag `v0.13.3` for the full
+implementation, in case a future hardware class is found where
+USB-layer recovery actually works.
+
+**New: sysfs-cached identity fallback (Linux).** `list_drives` now
+populates empty INQUIRY vendor/model/firmware fields from
+`/sys/class/scsi_generic/sgN/device/{vendor,model,rev}` — the kernel
+runs its own INQUIRY at device probe time and stashes the answer there,
+so even a mid-wedge INQUIRY still yields the UI a human-readable
+identity. The drive surface on screen doesn't suddenly go blank the
+moment the drive firmware locks up.
+
+## 0.13.3 (2026-04-24)
+
+### Bug fix — `drive_has_disc` wedge recovery was dead code for TUR errors
+
+The wedge-signature predicate introduced in 0.13.2 gated on
+`opcode == SCSI_INQUIRY (0x12)` — a holdover from when enumerate-time
+INQUIRY was the only path wedges surfaced on. `drive_has_disc` issues
+`TEST UNIT READY (0x00)`, so its wedge errors (`E4000: 0x00/0xff/0x00`)
+never matched the predicate and the SCSI-reset + USB-reset escalation
+never fired. Production result: the BU40N USB BD-RE stayed wedged
+indefinitely, with autorip logging `recovery exhausted` on the raw
+pass-through error while no recovery had actually been attempted.
+
+Fix: drop the opcode constraint. Status byte `0xFF` is synthesised by
+our own `execute()` path when `poll()` on the SG fd times out; it's
+the ground-truth wedge marker regardless of which opcode was in flight.
+Doc comments on `is_wedge_signature` and `WEDGE_STATUS_BYTE` updated
+accordingly. Linux-only — macOS / Windows use sense-key-based wedge
+detection and are unaffected.

+
+Common problems and solutions for optical drive ripping with freemkv.
+
+---
+
+## 1. USB-SATA Bridge Issues
+
+This is the single most common source of problems when ripping discs over USB.
+
+### Symptoms
+
+- The drive disappears mid-rip. The ripping tool reports the device is gone, and `ls /dev/sg*` no longer shows it.
+- The device re-enumerates under a different name: `sg4` becomes `sg5`, then `sg7`, then `sg11` after each USB port reset.
+- `dmesg` shows USB port resets: `usb X-Y: reset high-speed USB device`, `xhci_hcd 0000:00:14.0: Cannot enable. Maybe the USB cable is bad?`, or `usb-storage: device reset failed`.
+- The SCSI layer reports `host_status=7` (Linux USB transport error) in sense data.
+- The drive works fine for reading data discs or burning, but crashes when hitting damaged sectors during a rip.
+- After the crash, the drive is completely invisible until physically unplugged and reconnected.
+
+### Root Cause
+
+USB-SATA bridges translate between the USB Mass Storage protocol (BOT or UAS) and the drive's native SATA interface. When the optical drive encounters an unreadable sector, it returns a SCSI CHECK CONDITION with sense key 0x03 (MEDIUM ERROR). Some bridge chipsets -- particularly the Initio INIC-36xx family -- have buggy firmware that mishandles this error response.
+
+Specific failure modes:
+
+- **Incorrect residue reporting.** The bridge claims a different number of bytes transferred than what actually occurred. The Linux USB storage driver sees this discrepancy as a protocol violation and resets the port to recover. The `US_FL_IGNORE_RESIDUE` quirk exists specifically for this class of bug (see `drivers/usb/storage/transport.c` in the Linux kernel).
+- **Bridge firmware crash.** On some Initio bridges, a malformed SCSI error response from the drive causes the bridge MCU to hang entirely. The USB controller sees the device stop responding and initiates a port reset. The bridge recovers (it re-enumerates), but the rip is dead -- all state is lost.
+- **Sense data corruption.** The bridge forwards garbled or truncated sense data to the host, which the SCSI midlayer cannot parse, leading to a transport reset.
+
+This is a hardware + firmware problem, not a software bug. The same drive connected via direct SATA does not exhibit these symptoms.
+
+### Known Affected Bridges
+
+| Chipset | USB IDs | Notes |
+|---------|---------|-------|
+| Initio INIC-3609 | `13fd:3609` | Very common in cheap SATA-to-USB enclosures. Highly problematic. |
+| Initio INIC-3619 | `13fd:3940` | Same firmware family as INIC-3609. |
+| Initio INIC-3069 | `13fd:0840` | Older variant, same residue bug. |
+| ASMedia ASM1051 | `174c:5106` | Early ASM SATA bridge. Residue issues on error paths. |
+| JMicron JMB36x | `152d:0561` | Some firmware versions. Not all JMicroon chips are affected. |
+
+If your drive came in a pre-built external enclosure (Vantec, Sabrent, OWC, etc.), it almost certainly uses one of these bridge chips internally.
+
+### The Fix: USB Storage Quirk
+
+Apply the `US_FL_IGNORE_RESIDUE` kernel quirk for your bridge. This tells the Linux USB storage driver to ignore the residue field in SCSI response frames, preventing the port reset on mismatched byte counts.
+
+**Step 1: Identify your bridge's vendor:product ID.**
+
+```bash
+lsusb
+```
+
+Look for your drive's entry. Example output:
+
+```
+Bus 002 Device 005: ID 13fd:0840 Initio Corporation INIC-3609
+```
+
+Here the vendor ID is `13fd` and the product ID is `0840`.
+
+**Step 2: Apply the quirk at runtime.**
+
+```bash
+echo "13fd:0840:i" > /sys/module/usb_storage/parameters/quirks
+```
+
+Replace `13fd:0840` with your device's actual IDs. The `:i` flag means `US_FL_IGNORE_RESIDUE`.
+
+You can combine multiple flags. Common additions:
+
+- `:i` -- ignore residue (`US_FL_IGNORE_RESIDUE`)
+- `:u` -- force BOT mode instead of UAS, for bridges with UAS bugs
+
+**Step 3: Reconnect the drive.** Unplug and replug the USB cable, or bind/unbind the device. The quirk is applied per-module-load, so existing sessions may need the drive reconnected.
+
+### Making It Persistent
+
+Add the quirk to your kernel boot parameters so it survives reboots.
+
+Edit `/etc/default/grub` (GRUB) and add to `GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT`:
+
+```
+GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet usb_storage.quirks=13fd:0840:i"
+```
+
+Then rebuild the GRUB config:
+
+```bash
+sudo update-grub
+```
+
+For systemd-boot, add to your loader entry or `/etc/kernel/cmdline`:
+
+```
+usb_storage.quirks=13fd:0840:i
+```
+
+Multiple devices can be separated by commas:
+
+```
+usb_storage.quirks=13fd:0840:i,174c:5106:u
+```
+
+### Recommended Bridges
+
+If you are buying a USB-SATA adapter or enclosure for optical drive use:
+
+| Bridge | USB IDs | Notes |
+|--------|---------|-------|
+| ASMedia ASM1153 | `174c:1153` | Reliable. Widely available in SATA-USB 3.0 cables. |
+| JMicron JMS578 | `152d:0578` | Good firmware. Supports UASP. |
+| Icy Box IB-AC640-C3 | N/A | Uses a known-good bridge internally. Plug-and-play. |
+
+Avoid any enclosure or adapter listing an Initio chipset.
+
+### Best Solution: Direct SATA
+
+Connect your optical drive directly to a motherboard SATA port. This eliminates the USB-SATA bridge entirely and is the most reliable configuration:
+
+- No USB protocol overhead or translation errors.
+- No bridge firmware bugs.
+- No port resets or re-enumeration.
+- Full SATA error recovery handled natively by the kernel's libata driver.
+- Sustained read speeds are limited only by the drive, not the USB bus.
+
+If your machine has a free SATA port, use it.
+
+---
+
+## 2. Damaged Disc Handling
+
+### Symptoms
+
+- SCSI MEDIUM ERROR (sense key 0x03) at specific LBAs. `dmesg` shows `sr X:0:0:0: [srY] Unrecoverable read error` or similar.
+- Read speed drops to near zero when approaching a damaged area.
+- The drive makes audible retrying noises (laser repositioning, spindle speed changes).
+- On USB-connected drives: the bridge crashes (see section 1 above) when the drive returns the error.
+
+### How freemkv Handles This
+
+freemkv uses a three-layer recovery model. See [`docs/rip-recovery.md`](docs/rip-recovery.md) for full details.
+
+- **Pass 1 (Disc::copy):** Fast sweep with 64 KB reads. On failure, zero-fills the block and skips forward. Writes a ddrescue-format mapfile for later retry.
+- **Pass 2+ (Disc::patch):** Targeted re-reads of bad ranges with a long 30-second timeout per CDB. The drive firmware performs its own ECC and laser power retries within that window.
+- **In-stream (DiscStream):** Adaptive batch halving -- reduces request size on failure to isolate bad sectors within a larger block.
+
+This means a disc with some bad sectors will still produce a usable ISO. The damaged areas are zero-filled in pass 1 and retried in subsequent passes. Structure-protected sectors (deliberate unreadable regions from copy protection) will never yield, which is expected.
+
+### The Drive Taint Issue (LG BU40N)
+
+Some drives, notably the LG BU40N, exhibit a "taint" behavior after encountering MEDIUM ERRORs:
+
+1. The drive hits a damaged sector and returns a MEDIUM ERROR.
+2. From that point forward, **all subsequent reads fail** -- even reads to sectors that were previously successful.
+3. The only recovery is to physically unplug and reconnect the drive (or power-cycle it).
+
+This is not a freemkv bug. It is a drive firmware behavior triggered by the interaction between the drive's internal error recovery and the USB-SATA bridge's handling of the error response. The drive firmware enters a degraded state that it does not recover from without a power cycle.
+
+Workarounds:
+
+- **Use a direct SATA connection.** This eliminates the bridge interaction that triggers the taint.
+- **Use a different bridge.** The ASM1153 and JMS578 are less likely to trigger this behavior.
+- **Accept the partial ISO.** freemkv's skip-forward recovery will zero-fill the unreadable blocks and continue. The resulting ISO may be playable with minor glitches in the affected areas.
+- **Physical replug between retry passes.** If running multi-pass patch, replug the drive between passes to clear the taint state.
+
+freemkv deliberately does not attempt inline SCSI resets or eject cycles to recover from this state, because those operations were found to make the problem worse on affected hardware (see the design rationale in [`docs/rip-recovery.md`](docs/rip-recovery.md)).
+
+---
+
+## 3. Drive Not Detected
+
+### Check Hardware Visibility
+
+```bash
+lsusb
+```
+
+Verify the drive appears in the USB device list. If it does not show up, the drive is not visible to the host at all -- check cables, power, and USB port.
+
+```bash
+ls /dev/sg*
+```
+
+On Linux, optical drives appear as `/dev/sg*` devices (the SCSI Generic interface). freemkv uses `/dev/sg*`, not `/dev/sr*`. If `lsusb` shows the device but no `/dev/sg*` entry exists, the `sg` kernel module may not be loaded:
+
+```bash
+sudo modprobe sg
+```
+
+### Check Kernel Messages
+
+```bash
+dmesg | grep -i usb | tail -30
+dmesg | grep -i sg | tail -10
+```
+
+Look for:
+- USB enumeration errors or failed port resets.
+- `sg_add` messages confirming the sg device was registered.
+- Permission denied or access errors.
+
+### Permission Issues
+
+On most Linux distributions, `/dev/sg*` devices are owned by `root:disk` or `root:cdrom` with restricted permissions. Running freemkv as an unprivileged user will fail with permission errors.
+
+Options:
+
+- Add your user to the appropriate group:
+
+  ```bash
+  sudo usermod -aG disk $USER
+  ```
+
+  Then log out and back in for the change to take effect. On some distributions the group is `cdrom` or `optical` instead of `disk`.
+
+- Run with elevated privileges:
+
+  ```bash
+  sudo freemkv ...
+  ```
+
+- Install a udev rule for persistent per-device permissions. Create `/etc/udev/rules.d/99-sg-optical.rules`:
+
+  ```
+  SUBSYSTEM=="scsi_generic", ATTRS{type}=="5", MODE="0666"
+  ```
+
+  Then reload udev rules:
+
+  ```bash
+  sudo udevadm control --reload-rules && sudo udevadm trigger
+  ```
+
+### Spin-Up Delay
+
+Optical drives take 30-60 seconds to spin up and become ready after hot-plug or disc insertion. During this window, SCSI commands may return NOT READY or timeout.
+
+freemkv's `Drive::wait_ready()` handles this automatically by polling with TEST UNIT READY until the drive responds. If you are writing your own code using the library, always call `wait_ready()` before `init()`:
+
+```rust
+let mut drive = Drive::open(Path::new("/dev/sg4"))?;
+drive.wait_ready()?;  // blocks until disc is ready, up to 30s
+drive.init()?;
+```
+
+If the drive was just plugged in, wait a full minute before concluding it is not detected.
+
+---
+
+## 4. How to Identify Your USB-SATA Bridge
+
+If you are experiencing the issues described in section 1, you need to know which bridge chipset your adapter or enclosure uses.
+
+### Step 1: Find the Device
+
+```bash
+lsusb
+```
+
+Look for entries matching your drive or enclosure. Bridges may appear under their own manufacturer name or as a generic SATA device. Common examples:
+
+```
+Bus 002 Device 005: ID 13fd:0840 Initio Corporation
+Bus 002 Device 006: ID 174c:1153 ASMedia Technology Inc. ASM1153
+Bus 002 Device 007: ID 152d:0578 JMicron Technology Corp. JMS578
+```
+
+### Step 2: Match the IDs
+
+| Vendor | Product ID | Chipset | Status |
+|--------|-----------|---------|--------|
+| `13fd` | `3609` | Initio INIC-3609 | Affected. Apply quirk. |
+| `13fd` | `3940` | Initio INIC-3619 | Affected. Apply quirk. |
+| `13fd` | `0840` | Initio INIC-3069 | Affected. Apply quirk. |
+| `174c` | `5106` | ASMedia ASM1051 | Affected (early firmware). Apply quirk. |
+| `174c` | `1153` | ASMedia ASM1153 | Good. No quirk needed. |
+| `152d` | `0561` | JMicron JMB36x | Affected (some firmware). Apply quirk if issues occur. |
+| `152d` | `0578` | JMicron JMS578 | Good. No quirk needed. |
+
+### Step 3: Check dmesg for the Bridge Name
+
+```bash
+dmesg | grep -i "usb-storage\|uas\|initio\|asmedia\|jmicron"
+```
+
+This often reveals the bridge chipset even when `lsusb` shows a generic name.
+
+### Step 4: If the Enclosure Is Sealed
+
+Many external drive enclosures (Vantec NexStar, Sabrent, OWC, etc.) do not advertise the bridge chipset on the packaging. In this case:
+
+1. Check `lsusb` while the enclosure is connected.
+2. Search the vendor:product ID online -- there are community-maintained lists of which chipsets popular enclosures use.
+3. If you cannot determine the chipset and are experiencing bridge crashes, assume it is an Initio and apply the quirk with its IDs.
+4. The definitive test: connect the bare drive to a motherboard SATA port. If the problems disappear, the bridge was the cause.
+
+---
+
+## 5. General Debugging Checklist
+
+When something goes wrong during a rip, gather this information before filing an issue:
+
+1. **freemkv version:** `freemkv --version` or the crate version in `Cargo.toml`.
+2. **Drive model:** from the drive label, or from `freemkv info`.
+3. **Connection type:** USB (with bridge chipset if known) or direct SATA.
+4. **Operating system and kernel:** `uname -a`.
+5. **Kernel messages during the failure:** `dmesg | tail -50` immediately after the crash.
+6. **SCSI device:** which `/dev/sg*` the drive was on, and whether it changed after the failure.
+7. **The disc:** title, format (BD/DVD/UHD), condition.
+
+Include all of the above in bug reports. SCSI transport errors that resolve with the `US_FL_IGNORE_RESIDUE` quirk or by switching to direct SATA are bridge firmware bugs, not freemkv bugs.

 CopyOptions {

+    progress: Some(&reporter),  // progress callback
+    halt: Some(flag),  // halt flag for graceful stop
 }
 ```

+Dispatch logic:
+- No mapfile → sweep (fresh Pass 1)
+- Mapfile with NonTried (`?`) → sweep with resume
+- Mapfile covering full disc, only NonTrimmed/NonScraped/Unreadable → patch
+- Mapfile clean → no-op
+
 ## Algorithm

-### Pass 1 — fast sweep
+### Pass 1 — fast sweep (`Disc::copy` → `sweep_internal`)

-1. Read 64 KB (32 sectors, one BD ECC block) at the current LBA.
-2. On success: mark the range `+`, advance by one block.
-3. On failure (with `skip_on_error`): zero-fill the block in the ISO, mark
-   it `*`, advance.
-4. If `skip_forward` is set: after a failure, jump ahead by an exponentially
-   growing amount (256 KB initial, doubling on consecutive failures, capped at
-   1% of disc). The skipped bytes are also marked `*` — `patch` will visit
-   them later.
-5. Reset the skip size to 256 KB on the first success after a failure.
+1. Read one ECC block (32 sectors for UHD, 16 for BD/DVD) at the current LBA.
+2. On success: write data to ISO, mark `+`, advance.
+3. On failure (with `multipass`): zero-fill, mark `*`, advance.
+4. Track a sliding window of the last 16 ECC block results. When ≥12% are failures
+   → **damage-jump**: skip ahead by `256×batch×multiplier` sectors (8 MB base for
+   UHD). Double the multiplier on each jump (8→16→32→64 MB...). Zero-fill the gap as `*`.
+5. On 16 consecutive good reads: reset jump multiplier to 1, restore max read speed.
+6. Speed control: damage zone entry → minimum speed, exit → maximum speed.
+7. Only transport failures (USB bridge crash) abort the pass.

-Pass 1 completes when every byte has terminal status (`+`, `-`, or the caller
-bails via the halt flag).
+Pass 1 completes when every byte has been visited (either `+` or `*`).

-### Pass 2+ — patch
+### Pass 2+ — patch (`Disc::copy` → `patch_internal`)

-`Disc::patch` reads the mapfile and iterates every non-`+` range. For each:
+`Disc::patch` reads the mapfile and iterates every non-`+` range. Default: **reverse** mode
+(walks ranges from highest LBA to lowest, within each range from end to start).

-1. Issue a drive read with full recovery enabled (SCSI-level retries,
-   ECC recovery, the lot).
-2. On success: write the good bytes into the ISO at the exact byte offset,
-   mark `+`.
-3. On failure: mark `-`.
-4. Update the mapfile after every block — crash-safe resume.
+1. Issue a single-sector read with 60 s timeout (`recovery=true`). Drive firmware
+   does its own ECC recovery inside that window.
+2. On success: write the good bytes into the ISO, mark `+`.
+3. On failure with non-marginal SCSI sense: bail immediately (drive won't produce data).
+4. On failure with marginal sense: mark `-`, continue.
+5. Update the mapfile after every block — crash-safe resume.
+6. Wedged-drive exit: 50 consecutive failures with zero recovery → bail this pass.

-Idempotent. Call `patch` N times for N retry attempts; typically the caller
-stops early if a pass recovers zero bytes (structure-protected sectors will
-never yield).
+### In-stream — adaptive batch halving (`DiscStream::fill_extents`)
+
+When a consumer reads a `DiscStream` directly (no ISO intermediate),
+`fill_extents` runs an adaptive sizer in front of `Drive::read`:
+
+1. Try the current preferred batch size (e.g. 32 sectors, one BD ECC block).
+2. On failure: halve the batch and retry at the same LBA. Emit
+   `EventKind::BatchSizeChanged { reason: Shrunk }`.
+3. On a clean-read streak: probe back up toward the preferred size. Emit
+   `EventKind::BatchSizeChanged { reason: Probed }`.
+4. If a single-sector read fails: skip (zero-fill, emit
+   `EventKind::SectorSkipped`) when `skip_errors` is set, otherwise return
+   `Err(DiscRead)`.
+
+This is layer 3. It exists so a transient single-sector glitch in a 32-sector
+batch can be isolated and read individually without the caller needing to
+implement retry logic.

 ## Design choices

+**`Drive::read` is single-shot.** No inline retry phases, no SCSI reset,
+no eject cycle. The `recovery` flag controls only the per-CDB timeout
+(1.5 s vs. 30 s); on any failure it returns `Err(DiscRead)` immediately.
+Inline recovery (5× gentle retry → close + SCSI reset + reopen → 5× more)
+was removed in 0.13.6. See the stop-wedge postmortem (2026-04-25) for rationale:
+the inline reset on the LG BU40N (Initio USB-SATA bridge)
+wedged drive firmware below the bridge without ever recovering a sector,
+and the gentle-retry phase produced long stretches of 0 KB/s with no
+recoveries to show for it. Recovery responsibility is now layered: layer 1
+handles ranges, layer 3 handles request size, neither touches the
+wedge-prone reset path.
+
 **No `MODE SELECT` to disable drive retries.** Research showed neither ddrescue
 nor MakeMKV does this. Drive firmware has access to raw analog signal, laser
 power control, and drive-specific ECC tuning that userspace can't replicate —
 disabling it throws away recovery headroom on marginal sectors. We fail fast
-via short SG_IO timeouts instead, and we avoid per-sector probing on first
-contact by using large blocks + skip-forward.
+via short SG_IO timeouts in pass 1 and let the firmware work the long timeout
+in pass 2 / patch.
+
+**No SCSI reset from any retry path.** `SgIoTransport::reset` (Linux) is
+trimmed to a kernel SG_IO state flush plus ALLOW MEDIUM REMOVAL — the
+`SG_SCSI_RESET` ioctl and STOP/START UNIT escalation were removed in 0.13.6.
+The macOS reset (which had been a no-op) was removed entirely. The top-level
+`scsi::reset()` / `reset_with_timeout()` / `reset_blocking()` wrappers were
+also removed (no callers). The remaining `Drive::reset()` is only invoked
+explicitly by callers that need an eject-cycle escape hatch — it is never
+reached from a read path.

 **ISO intermediate, even for single-pass.** Pass 1 always writes an ISO. The
 mux stage reads the ISO via `IsoSectorReader`. For single-pass (no retries),
 this adds ~2-3 min (local disk mux) but gains resumability across crashes,
 re-muxability without re-ripping, and a persistent forensic artifact. Callers
 who need pure speed can bypass and use `DiscStream::new(Box::new(drive), …)`

+// `drive_has_disc` recovery. Production testing on the LG BU40N USB BD-RE
+// confirmed the USB stack resets succeed — dmesg logs

+// but the drive firmware below the USB bridge stays locked: LUN never
+// re-enumerates, TUR still times out, the drive is unusable until
+// physical unplug-replug or host reboot. Additional approaches tried
+// and discarded: `authorized` 0→1 toggle, usb-storage driver
+// unbind/rebind, forced SCSI host rescan, `STOP` + `START UNIT`.
+//
+// The APIs were removed so no caller can be misled into thinking a
+// software-only recovery exists for this class of wedge. If a future
+// hardware class surfaces where USB-layer recovery actually helps, the
+// code should live here again, gated on a wedge signature — see git

+//! Integration tests for the SCSI error-decoding contract.
+//!
+//! v0.13.20 rewrote `scsi/linux.rs` to a synchronous blocking SG_IO and
+//! consolidated sense parsing into the `parse_sense` helper that every
+//! platform backend now shares. v0.13.23 replaced the `Error::ScsiError`
+//! flat-fields shape with `{ opcode, status, sense: Option<ScsiSense> }`
+//! so callers can route on structured sense data (key + ASC + ASCQ) via
+//! [`Error::scsi_sense`] / [`Error::is_marginal_read`] /
+//! [`ScsiSense::is_*`].
+//!
+//! The actual `ioctl(SG_IO, ...)` call is impossible to mock without a
+//! kernel — see
+//! `(internal)/docs/audits/2026-04-26-scsi-architecture-research.md`
+//! for why the audit recommends against libc shims here. These tests
+//! therefore pin the *contract* every backend must satisfy via a mock
+//! `ScsiTransport`:
+//!
+//!   1. Healthy result → `Ok(ScsiResult { bytes_transferred = data.len() - resid })`.
+//!   2. Transport-level failure (no SCSI status delivered: kernel
+//!      timeout, USB bridge wedge, IOKit service error) →
+//!      `Error::ScsiError { status: SCSI_STATUS_TRANSPORT_FAILURE, sense: None }`.
+//!      `Error::is_scsi_transport_failure()` returns `true`. Used by
+//!      `drive_has_disc` to detect the wedge signature.
+//!   3. SCSI-level failure (drive replied CHECK CONDITION with sense) →
+//!      `Error::ScsiError { status: 0x02, sense: Some(ScsiSense {…}) }`
+//!      with the parsed key/ASC/ASCQ.
+//!   4. `Error::is_marginal_read()` is `true` for MEDIUM ERROR /
+//!      ABORTED COMMAND / RECOVERED ERROR / NO SENSE; `false` for
+//!      HARDWARE / DATA PROTECT / UNIT ATTENTION / NOT READY / ILLEGAL
+//!      REQUEST and for transport failures.
+//!
+//! Inline `parse_sense_tests` in `src/scsi/mod.rs` cover the pure parse
+//! logic (descriptor 0x72/0x73 vs fixed 0x70/0x71, short-buffer, VALID
+//! bit masking, unknown response codes, ASC/ASCQ offsets); this file
+//! covers the consumer side — a real transport feeding a real Error
+//! variant to a real call site (`scsi::inquiry`).
