Hi, I'm working on a set of patches for the initio scsi driver and I found some strangeness with its header file, initio.h. I noticed that sun3_scsi.c and sun3_scsi_vme.c include the header, and it uses defines such as SCSI_ABORT_SNOOZE (defined in initio.h). I did some grepping and am now confused. Grepping the entire kernel tree like so: grep -r SCSI_ABORT_ ~/kernelcoding/linux-2.6-rc-latest/* gives me a handful of scsi drivers that use these defines. Grepping the kernel source for these defines like so: grep -r SCSI_ABORT_ ~/kernelcoding/linux-2.6-rc-latest/* | grep define only gives me drivers/scsi/initio.h, so they are only defined in initio.h Grepping the whole kernel source for drivers/headers that include initio.h like so: grep -r "initio.h" ~/kernelcoding/linux-2.6-rc-latest/* only gives me 3 results - initio.c, sun3_scsi.c and sun3_scsi_vme.c. So how is it possible that other drivers such as aha1542.c use these defines? Can anyone please explain this as it's really confused me, and I want to make sure that my patches don't break other drivers when I post them here.
