Eddie,
Here is the set of patches ported to sles11.
It applies cleanly on linux-2.6.27.23-0.1
Anyways, you have to test the mainline version for it to be pushed
upstream. (this patch is just for verification purposes).
series:
sles11_scsi_dh_params
sles11_emc_parameters
sles11_parameters_fix_for_dmmpath

Handle the parameters provided by user thru multipath.
This handler expects only 2 parameters and their value can either be 0 or 1.
This code originates from the old dm-emc.c file. Appropriate changes have
been made to make it work in the new design.

static int parse_features(struct arg_set *as, struct multipath *m)
When we moved the device handler functionality from dm layer to SCSI layer
we dropped the paramaeter functionality.
This path adds an interface to scsi dh layer to set device handler
parameters.
Basically, multipath layer need to create a string with all the parameters
and call scsi_dh_set_params() after it called scsi_dh_attach() on a
device.
If a device handler provides such an interface it will handle the parameters as
it expects them.
