Everybody agrees with this 100%

Note that James submitted a sdev_printk() patch in the past few days, which assists in removing HCIL from the SCSI core.


IMO, 64 bit LUNs and no HCIL is more important than "transport
attributes" and should've _preceded_ them.

Agreed. But that's a lot of work, and I doubt people want to delay SAS further to wait for complete HCIL elimination.


The fact that you're trying to umbrella them together, doesn't
make it _technologically_ correct.

It's muddled together, yes. That doesn't make it any less correct. It's just not a clean, immediate separation. Its a separation that takes time.
