reading file hangs rtems

Ok, iv found the problem with my mmc block driver.
well for now, the driver is read-only (didnt implemented the write fct
yet)
so here is my smc_ioctl...

static int
smc_ioctl(dev_t dev, uint32_t req, void *argp)
{
    switch (req)
    {
        case BLKIO_REQUEST:
        {
            blkdev_request *r = argp;
            switch (r->req)
            {
                case BLKDEV_REQ_READ:
                    return smc_read(r);
                case BLKDEV_REQ_WRITE:
		/* return smc_write(r);*/
		    printk("BLKDEV_REQ_WRITE\n");
		    return -1;
                default:
                    errno = EBADRQC;
                    return -1;
            }
            break;
        }

        default:
            errno = EBADRQC;
            return -1;
    }
}

well the output of this shows me that after a "read file" the fat layer
seems to try to write something and hangs in a endless loop...
(the output is full of BLKDEV_REQ_WRITE).

So my question is, how to tell the fat layer not to try to write on the
device?
maybe i should change my return value for BLKDEV_REQ_WRITE?

TIA

Philippe
