I think you might also want to look at bsg or really wanted to see bsg
along with how to support bidi commands? You would want to look at
block/bsg.c for the bsg driver. And see
drivers/scsi/scsi_transport_sas.c's sas_bsg_initialize and its
sas_non_host_smp_request functions for examples of how to send bsg to a
transport class, and from a class to a class object like a rport
(replace fc rport for a sas phy though).
