Subject: [PATCH] DVD-R capability flag set incorrectly, /proc formatting fix
Date: 09 Feb 2004 16:26:01 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1076369160.3594.6.camel@lintest.iomegacorp.com> (raw)

This patch for scsi/sr.c and cdrom/cdrom.c persuades 
/proc/sys/dev/cdrom/info to report that connecting a drive via USB 
rather than ATAPI in fact does not make it able to write DVD-R.

In linux-2.6.2 without this patch, when sr0 and hdd are the same type
of device connected via USB and ATAPI respectively, I see:

$ cat /proc/sys/dev/cdrom/info:
drive name:             sr1     sr0     hdd
...
Can write CD-R:         1       0       0
Can write CD-RW:        1       0       0
Can read DVD:           0       0       0
Can write DVD-R:        1       1       0
Can write DVD-RAM:      0       0       0
Can read MRW:           0               0               0
Can write MRW:          0               0               0

With this patch applied, instead I see:

$ cat /proc/sys/dev/cdrom/info:
drive name:             sr1     sr0     hdd
...
Can write CD-R:         1       0       0
Can write CD-RW:        1       0       0
Can read DVD:           0       0       0
Can write DVD-R:        0       0       0
Can write DVD-RAM:      0       0       0
Can read MRW:           0       0       0
Can write MRW:          0       0       0

The sr1 device in particular is an ordinary CD-RW that in fact cannot 
write DVD-R.

While messing with this code, I also thought to tweak the /proc 
formatting to align the tabbed columns.
