Originally my patch included support for "legacy" TP devices triggered by TPE=1 but no TP VPD page listed in page 0. I also supported the even older TP approach (WRITE SAME without the UNMAP bit, all zero payload). However, I talked to a few partners and everybody were going to add the TP VPD to their firmware builds right away. So I ripped out the compat stuff because I felt it was weird to have explicit support for an intermediate SBC3 release in there. How would you feel about a sysfs switch to "force" TP on for devices that don't report it correctly? -- Martin K.
