scst support for kernels above 2.6.15

scst support for kernels above 2.6.15

[Jeff V. Merkey]

I have noticed that scsi_do_req has apparently been obsoleted in 2.6.18 
and above.  Is scst and target support for FC-AL going to
remain supported and/or merged at some point?   If so, what is planned 
for scst support for later kernels?

Jeff, I don't know why you ask here and not in scst-devel mailing list,
but SCST has beed updated to use scsi_execute_async() instead of
scsi_do_req() in 2.6.18+ for quite a while. Yes, scst is going to be
supported in the future.

The code is not at sourceforge on your project site with these updates 
for 2.6.18. Where is the 2.6.18 version currently hosted?

P.S. I will post this to the scsi list in the future.

Thanks

It is there on http://sourceforge.net/projects/scst
(http://scst.sourceforge.net/). See 0.9.5 release version as well as
development code in the SVN.

For scst only questions scst-devel on lists.sourceforge.net would be better.

Released 12/01/2006 - now I know why I missed it there -- you just 
released it. :-)

Ok. Thanks for the prompt response. I will be testing your code today at 
4Gb. Let you know if it works.
