The Quantum GoVault SATAPI removable disk device returns ATA_ERR in response to a REPORT LUNS packet. If this happens to an ATAPI device that is attached to a SAS controller (this is the case with sas_ata), the device does not load because SCSI won't touch a "SCSI device" that won't report its LUNs. Since most ATAPI devices don't support multiple LUNs anyway, we might as well fake a response like we do for ATA devices. Signed-off-by: Darrick J. Wong <djwong@xxxxxxxxxx>
I'm leaning towards applying this, perhaps with a module option that allows experimenters to revert back to the older behavior.
Any chance you could be talked into tackling some of the SAT translation-related items Doug G mentioned? I'm almost certain there are some info pages we should be returning, but are not, at the very least.
