Hi Sathya, please start your effort per your plans. I don't think we'll need separate binaries as we should be fine with a MODULE_ALIAS and registering two misc devices. But compared to the overall effort that's a fairly minor descision which we can revisit while going ahead. Keeping the user interfaces 100% backwards compatible should be the first priority. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-scsi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
