I wonder if you can change the type of devno to 'unsigned int'? At a

Reading more about scsi_add_single_device(), the comment says "Note: this seems to be aimed exclusively at SCSI parallel busses.". So I don't think we should worry about it. But then I also do not understand why libata is wired to this at
all. Cannot have ATA device on a parallel SCSI bus...

The comment is kind of obsolete. It is not limited to SCSI parallel busses only.


On my system, I cannot get

echo "scsi add-single-device X 0 100 0" >/proc/scsi/scsi

to do anything and so I do not see how ata_scsi_user_scan can ever be called...


Did you enabled CONFIG_SCSI_PROC_FS ? I started a qemu and it still works.

Forgot to say that if you do not want to enable this config, you can still do this instead:

echo "0 0 0" > /sys/class/scsi_host/host1/scan
