Subject: Re: [RFC PATCH 1/4] convert block layer drivers to blkerr error values
Date: Wed, 24 Aug 2005 15:32:46 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <430CCB5E.3090808@pobox.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20050824192132.GA20663@us.ibm.com>

In general, I'm a bit worried about these changes, for two overall reasons:

1) I didn't see any analysis of the ultimate end users of block layer 
error values:  the filesystems.

2) This begins to converge with the SCSI layer's error/retry/etc. error 
values.  Since I would eventually like to see SCSI's non-SCSI-related 
infrastructure "moved up", a bit -more- alignment with SCSI at this 
stage might be nice.
