The reasons it sat in libata-dev rather than go upstream are discussed at the top of the patch. If anyone feels strongly about this ioctl, take it upon yourself to research the patch fully, address the concerns, and present an updated solution. The patch will be archived forever at http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/jgarzik/libata/archive/2.6.12-rc5-git8-ioctl-get-identity.patch.bz2 --------------000006050000020502060705 Content-Type: text/x-patch; name="2.6.12-rc5-git8-ioctl-get-identity.patch" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: inline; filename="2.6.12-rc5-git8-ioctl-get-identity.patch" For inclusion, a) should determine if need for ioctl justifies maintenance b) should address Bart Z's concerns: * it is not complete HDIO_GET_IDENTIFY implementation (applications may assume otherwise) * you may need to add byte-swapping of the fields in the future (currently it is fine) * same info is available via pass-thru inteface drivers/scsi/libata-scsi.c | 22 ++++++++++++++++++++++ 1 files changed, 22 insertions(+) commit fcf604172829176bc618663e8387c8943ff88b66 tree b10326c351daf26f34ce43b6a37369b30bb434c2 parent 89fb1c9e5e5345ea5531d6378912a5896923e914 parent 8be3de3fd8469154a2b3e18a4712032dac5b4a53 author Sat, 04 Jun 2005 08:02:29 -0400 committer Jeff Garzik Sat, 04 Jun 2005 08:02:29 -0400 Automatic merge of /spare/repo/linux-2.6/.git branch HEAD -------------------------- commit 89fb1c9e5e5345ea5531d6378912a5896923e914 tree 48fd7c6d1f9bba8936fc3e1208465c854c77834c parent 88d7bd8cb9eb8d64bf7997600b0d64f7834047c5 author Tobias Lorenz Thu, 12 May 2005 23:10:33 -0400 committer Jeff Garzik Thu, 12 May 2005 23:10:33 -0400 [PATCH] libata-scsi: get-identity ioctl support This patch adds support for transfering drive informations via the hd_driveid structure to the hdparm utility. At the moment, only cylinders, sectors, heads, model and firmware version are transfered.
