It's a huge subsystem of it's own. It's almost 50 _thousand_ lines of code for just a single "driver", and for rare hardware at that. Quite frankly, the "bang per line" is almost zero. What the ^&@* is wrong with "enterprise SCSI" people? The amount of crazy is overwhelming. So I've pulled it, but I'm still considering just unpulling it. That driver is _not_ "just a driver". It's something more. Something dank and smelly, that has grown in dark and forbidding places. The whole crazy "high end SCSI" industry needs a f*cking exorcism. Even if I don't unpull, I don't _ever_ want to see a driver like this outside the merge window. And dammit, James, you should have realized that.
