Other drives might want to use SCSI command emulation without

many limits on the emulation.

Might be a good idea to move something like this first into the series
and share the CDB decoder between scsi and ide (atapi) as a start.  A
little bit of refactoring of the CDB decoder, e.g. into one function
per opcode (-family) won't hurt either.


Yes, that was on my to-do list, as well.
Eg even the megasas already emulates REPORT LUNs, as we certainly don't want to pass the original LUN information back to the guest.
And it would make sense to trap some other commands (like INQUIRY), too, to
strip it off any unwanted information.

Cheers,
