Oh, for god's sake children. Why does every LIO vs SCST discussion turn into a pointless flameware over stuff no-one really cares about? If none of you has anything substantive to say: don't say it. Since patches into SCSI go over the mailing list for review and integration (and running checkpatch.pl on ... this would be a hint), I don't really give a toss how they're generated. > So, please understand that code and project workflow is only one of the > reasons why TCM/LIO v4 was selected over SCST. It isn't yet ... your code still has to be reviewed properly. My preferred reviewer is currently honing his skills on a diet of raw beef in Argentina, but hopefully he'll get around to it shortly.
