You can send any kind of CDB with any kind of buffers as BIOs. Even better, the scsi midlayer is very careful to immediately fail a bidi command and not try any kind of reties or error handling. So yes if you are emulating a command execution in SW you should be safe. What I said is true at scsi level, at block level of course there is no restrictions for any command. <snip> Boaz -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-scsi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
