Re: [PATCH 4/4] sd: Handle ZBC drives correctly

Hi John,

I can't really comment much on the ATA side as I'm not overly uptodate
on the ZAC spec.

But a device with the 0x14 device type must have sequential required
zones, which will generate new sense codes when writes outside the
write pointer happens.  I'm very concerned about

 a) how the SCSI midlayer handles those sense codes

and

 b) how we can communicate them to the user of the device, e.g. the
    filesystem or user application

Just attaching the device by default without a good solution for these
seems dangerous to me.
