I'm not a SCSI expert, so at first glance, the changes seemed to be a
little far streching. I can see that isn't the case though.
However, since SBP2 may not be fully compliant, it would seem we may not
be able to use this standard conversion policy.
I would have to say that it isn't working for a lot of people. Why does
our code work for everything, but the scsi code only work for some ppl?
Atleast I can say that where things are broken, our code fixes it, and
where things are working, our code also works. It would seem our code has
a workaround for the cases where the scsi code doesn't.
One thing that stands out is that we have a bit of code that changed the
device type from TYPE_RBC to TYPE_DISK in the command structure. Since I
didn't write this code, I can't really say why that is. Any ideas what
that was trying to accomplish? I've attached the changes here, so you can
see what our code did and maybe make some sense of it.
I honestly thing that our code was removed in an attempt to replace it
with some common code, perhaps without fully understanding what it may
have done special. I have to say, after looking at the scsi code that
replaces the sbp2 code, I can't see a hole lot of similarity.
