Judging from the above you have found some sg3_utils code. In a recent version, if you go to the "examples" subdirectory, you will find the scsi_inquiry.c and sg_simple1.c files. The former shows the usage of the older, deprecated SCSI_IOCTL_SCSI_COMMAND ioctl while the latter does something very similar but uses the SG_IO ioctl interface. The equivalence is that they both programs send a SCSI INQUIRY cdb to a device and print out the response. Doug Gilbert > I don't understand your question ...
