RFC: Move SG_GET_SCSI_ID from sg to scsi

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

 



I suggest moving the SG_GET_SCSI_ID ioctl from sg to scsi, since it's 
generally usefull and the alternative function SCSI_IOCTL_GET_IDLUN
is limited in range (in-kernel data types may be larger) and 
functionality (type, ...).

However, I have some questions about that ioctl:

- There is the concept of 8-Byte-LUNs: Are they mapped to integer LUNs?
Should the extra space in the struct sg_scsi_id be used for that?
Or should I abandon the idea and create a new IOCTL instead?

- The original IOCTL will check for sdp->detached. If the moved-to-scsi 
ioctl is called, the check will be done before chaining from sg, but what
will I need to check if it's called on a non-sg device?

- Are there any (planned) changes that will conflict with this patch?
