OK, I've done that and stopped at the first invocation of 
pmac_ide_atapi_transfer_cb. Here is a backtrace and the contents of some

already reverted as that was established before that it is not needed any 
more which simplifies pmac_ide_atapi_transfer_cb() quite a bit but I still 
can't understand the flow of this function and don't see where should I 
add a condition to handle this lba=-1 case that happens with READ_TOC 
using DMA. The reason I don't understand it is that the different fields 
(sizes and indexes) in these structures that are used in this callback 
don't make sense to me and I don't know how to use 
cpu_physical_memory_write() to copy data from the ide buffer to the guest 
memory as was suggested by Mark. Now that the problem is fairly well 
understood, wouldn't it be easier to one of you who understands what's 
happening to create a patch, instead of trying to explain all this to me?

This part was last touched by Alexander Graf so I assume he knows how it 
works and it would not be too hard for him to fix it. I'm happy to help 
testing and providing more debugging info as needed but I'm not sure I 
want to detangle it and figure out the whole block layer and DBDMA without 
any documentation to be able to fix it myself. Would it be possible to 
find some time for it in the foreseeable future? (That might still be 
sooner than me wrapping my head around it.)
