That is quite possible. Maybe someone could compile a list of programs that still use read/write to /dev/sg*? I had at some point planned to allow arbitrary block device -> /dev/sg* mapping, maybe it would be a good idea to finish that thought. Then you wouldn't have to rely on programs using SG_IO ioctl, which does seem like a bad idea. -- Jens Axboe
