What does "fix" mean? What does the old output look like and how does this patch change it? This matters, because this is a userspace interface and who knows, there might be applications out there which somehow depend on the old and broken behaviour. Of course, that might be totally silly and unrealistic but because we weren't told what the patch actually does, how can I tell? Please send a new and complete description of this change, thanks. -- 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
