Message-ID: <3EBABCE4.4010702@pobox.com> (raw)

Just some food for thought.

Many host controllers deal with special cases by filtering, or 
validating, or massaging SCSI cdb's passed to them, before queueing them 
for execution by the target.

Instead of changing the core kernel's scanning logic (or other logic) 
because of buggy USB storage devices, punt that duty to the USB storage 
core.  USB, not core SCSI, needs to know about buggy devices it will 
deal with, and work around them.
