I guess, may bad example messed up discussion. sorry.

>From begin:
  I have USB-connected card-reader (Sony Memory Stick).
  It connected as umass0 (ehci), then as da0.
  It can't be unplugged. (on-board notebook device)

Problem:
  When I change card (it was not mounted) da0 device does not detect
  media change and following mount fails.

Workarounds (I know three at this moment):
  - kldunload umass; kldload umass - the ugliest, will affect other
umass devices.
  - cat /dev/null > /dev/da0  before mount - GEOM hacking 
    (also I do not like do cat into device with data)
  - camcontrol detach da0; camcontrol rescan all - requires CAM patch

So, I am asking about solution, how it is supposed to work, 
I guess, like with CD, there is should not be special exercises after
card change.

Probably my card-read is too stupid to send any media change
notifications, how to test it ?

Another, probably related question, is there way to detect card
insertion/removal ?

It is not disconnected physically, just card removed.

6-CURRENT.
