[PATCH 1/3] Allow creating SBC devices without any media loaded.

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

 



When creating a device that is supposed to have a backing file
but no path was provided. Treat this as creating a removable device
without any media loaded.
Set removable=1 and make sure online=0 to indicate this is a
removable device and that all media access commands will fail with
check-condition/not ready/medium not present.
