As of SBC-3 draft revision 25 (27 October 2010) most
uses of "thin provisioning" have been renamed
"logical block provisioning". Further changes in
this direction occurred in SBC-3 draft revision 26
and I suspect there are more to come.

However thin provisioning lives on, essentially as a
special case of logical block provisioning. As of the
current drafts of SBC-3 and SPC-4 additional sense
code 38h,7h has the description you have given.


Memo to Martin Petersen and myself: scsi_debug needs
options and variables renamed due to these changes by
t10.
