After this commit: -For a SCSI mode sense: FUA bit will get set in the simulated SCSI cmd output buffer, since ATA_DFLAG_FUA is set, since libata_fua == 1. -For a SCSI WRITE_16 / WRITE_16 command: ata_scsi_rw_xlat() sets ATA_TFLAG_FUA, regardless if ATA_DFLAG_FUA is set or not. ata_set_rwcmd_protocol() will return a FUA command as long as ATA_TFLAG_FUA is set. Perhaps this commit should more clearly say that this commit only affects the simulated output for a SCSI mode sense command? Currently, the commit message is a bit misleading, since it makes the reader think that a SCSI write command with the FUA bit was not propagated to the device before this commit, which AFAICT, is not true. If the intention of this series was to only send a ATA write command to the device, if the device has the ATA_DFLAG_FUA flag set, then perhaps the series should include a new commit which either: -Adds a check to ata_scsi_rw_xlat() so that it only sets ATA_TFLAG_FUA if ATA_DFLAG_FUA is set; or -Adds a check to ata_scsi_rw_xlat() which returns an error if the SCSI command has the FUA bit set, but ATA_DFLAG_FUA is not set. Kind regards, Niklas
