Thanks. That's a bit better, but sg_reset can now run into
"No such device" errors.
That's the -ENODEV we return if another reset is in progress. Given
that I suspect sg_reset is the prime if not only user of this interface
I'm happy to change the error code we return here to anything Doug
agrees to.
I don't mind if you change it. However I plan to release
sg3_utils-1.40 in the next 2 or 3 weeks, so that would
be the earliest a revised sg_reset would be available for
distros. Improving error reports is something I always
like to do (so ENODEV for the "in progress" case seems a
bit strident).
On the other hand, the existing sg_reset code with --no-esc
has been in place since sg3_utils-1.36 [20130531]. So there
is a good chance current distributions have that version or
later.
