Subject: [PATCH 0/3] update blacklist matching to be usable by the transport classes
Date: Wed, 17 Jun 2009 15:00:44 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1245265244.8585.94.camel@mulgrave.site> (raw)
Since the discovery of a problem with Information Unit transfers on an
Ultrium tape, we need a way of blacklisting the tape. Unfortunately,
the current blacklist mechanism is embedded in scsi_devinfo.c and isn't
amenable to modification. This patch series
1/3: Fixes the problem with devinfo so that the transport classes can
use it. The interface is deliberately in scsi_priv.h so the hosts can't
use it
2/3: Updates some minor problems with the SPI transport class capability
code (instead of believing the inquiry data, it now believes only its
own settings)
3/3: Add the ultrium tape drives to the new blacklist code.
James
