I have tested this patch on LSI rdac storage. It works pretty well.. > -----Original Message----- > From: linux-scsi-owner@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:linux-scsi- > owner@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Chandra Seetharaman > Sent: Wednesday, October 21, 2009 11:23 AM > To: linux-scsi@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > Cc: dm-devel@xxxxxxxxxx; Moger, Babu; michaelc@xxxxxxxxxxx; > Benoit_Arthur@xxxxxxx; Eddie.Williams@xxxxxxxxxxxx; > berthiaume_wayne@xxxxxxx; Chandra Seetharaman > Subject: [PATCH 2/4] scsi_dh: Make rdac hardware handler's activate() > async > > Batch up MODE_SELECT in rdac device handler. > > LSI RDAC storage has the capability of handling mode selects for > multiple luns in a same command.
