[patch 08/52] [PATCH] dasd: support DIAG access for read-only devices

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

 



From: Stefan Weinhuber <wein@xxxxxxxxxx>

When a DASD device is used with the DIAG discipline, the DIAG
initialization will indicate success or error with a respective
return code. So far we have interpreted a return code of 4 as error,
but it actually means that the initialization was successful, but
the device is read-only. To allow read-only devices to be used with
DIAG we need to accept a return code of 4 as success.

Re-initialization of the DIAG access is also part of the DIAG error
recovery. If we find that the access mode of a device has been
changed from writable to read-only while the device was in use,
we print an error message.
