This is the second version of the following patchset to remove scsi_execute_async (and scsi_req_map_sg) usage in st: http://marc.info/?l=linux-scsi&m=122803306431009&w=2 This depends on the following patch, adds residual argument to scsi_execute and scsi_execute_req: http://marc.info/?l=linux-scsi&m=122836830920741&w=2 I changed only the second patch to add a helper function to perform SCSI commands synchronously. Previously, I implemented it by using blk_get_request, blk_rq_map_kern, and blk_execute_rq. This time I just use scsi_execute(). The above 'residual' patch enables me to do it. As discussed, I also changed the helper function to return -EBUSY in case of internal failure as st_do_scsi does. The 12th patch is newly added, convert st_int_ioctl to use st_scsi_kern_execute: http://marc.info/?l=linux-scsi&m=122826408814126&w=2 Kai, can I get your ACK on the second patch?
