Description Ronald F. Guilmette 1999-10-28 01:10:01 UTC
	In theory anyway, CD-ROM decices (the SCSI ones, anyway) can be
	induced to eject their loaded media via proper use of the `CDIOCEJECT'
	ioctl control code.

	An equivalent capability should be provided also for floppies, and
	indeed for *all* forms of removable media drives that provide this
	type of capability.

Fix: 

Manually eject the media.
How-To-Repeat: 
	RTFM (`man fdc')

This is a functional duplicate of PR 13843, but instead of closing it I'll 
use it as another "vote" for some sort of generic eject ioctl.  In any case, 
until we get a generic eject ioctl, you can use 'camcontrol eject' to eject 
any SCSI removable media.

I'll handle this sooner or later.  Due to my workload, this will likely be  
handled much later.

Comment 5 Eugene Grosbein freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2017-08-09 18:11:17 UTC
The request got no attention for 18 years. And we now have CAM layer working not only for SCSI devices. And floppy drives are not so topical anymore. So close this.
