Hello, Set of patches that follow this email facilitate movement of hardware handlers from dm layer to SCSI layer. Previous set of patches that implemented this was posted on Feb 27: http://marc.info/?l=linux-scsi&m=120416126328081&w=2 Changes have been made based on feedback received from James and Mike Anderson. Following are the changes: - Reduced the number of pointers used in scsi_device data structure from 2 to 1. - Added a special return code for check_sense function to return when the sense code is not handled by hardware handler's check_sense fucntion. - Added a request pointer argument to hardware handler's prep_fn. Patches are created on top of 2.6.25-rc2-mm1. Testing has been done with a IBM DS4800 storage device, which means the infrastructure and the lsi_rdac hardware handler has been tested. Testing by someone with the EMC hardware and/or HP hardware would be appreciated. Comments, suggestions solicited.
