This patch is just wrong on so many different levels its hard to know where to begin. 1. The auth for arbitary commands is CAP_SYS_RAWIO 2. "The SCSI command permissions were discussed widely on the linux lists but this did not result in any useful refinement of the permissions." - this is false. The process was refined, a table setup was added and debugged. Someone even wrote an fs for managing it that is not yet merged. Perhaps the patch author would care to re-read the archives and submit a new patch if one is even needed 3. Pleas explain *what* the specific consistency problems are And then please fix the same mess in 12rc.
