[PATCH 1/4] [SCSI] Only blacklist WRITE SAME for VMware virtual disks

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Commit 4089b71cc820 blacklisted WRITE SAME for all VMware disks.
However, the WRITE SAME commands are supported for passthrough
disks. Change the heuristic so we only blacklist virtual disks.
