[PATCH 3/4] Update documentation of HDIO_DRIVE_RESET ioctl

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Alter the entry for HDIO_DRIVE_RESET in Documentation/ioctl/hdio.txt to
reflect a functional change in the driver.  Besides, the entry has been
inaccurate before.
