Subject: [PATCH] 2.6.27-rc2 SCSI Rewrite help text for SCSI_SAS_HOST_SMP
Date: Tue, 12 Aug 2008 14:35:51 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <da824cf30808121435x7782a440v65f919010372e7a8@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 885 bytes --]
Rewrite libsas/Kconfig help text for SCSI_SAS_HOST_SMP option.
Previous text is useless. Thanks for Martin Petersen (mkp) for pointing
me in the right direction.
Signed-off-By: Grant Grundler <grundler@google.com>
(sorry - patch attached instead of inline because, uhm, gmail white
space mangles patches. Yes, we've complained about it).
New text reads:
+ Allows SAS hosts to receive SAS Management Protocol (SMP)
+ frames. Selecting this option builds an SMP interpreter
+ into libsas. SMP frames are used to manage SAS expanders
+ and routing of SAS frames.
+
+ For more details see:
+ http://www.scsita.org/aboutscsi/sas/tutorials.html
+ http://www.t11.org/ftp/t11/pub/sm/hba/04-373v0.pdf
+
+ Say N here if you want to save the few kb this consumes.
