Kai Mäkisara <Kai.Makisara@kolumbus.fi> says: The first patch re-applies after device reset some settings changed by the user (partition, density, block size). The second and third patch address the case where more than one ULD access the same device. The Unit Attention (UA) sense data is sent only to one ULD and the others miss it. The st driver needs to find out if device reset or media change has happened. The second patch adds counters for New Media and Power On/Reset (POR) Unit Attentions to the scsi_device struct. The third one changes st so that these are used: if the value in the scsi_device struct does not match the one stored locally, the corresponding UA has happened. Use of the was_reset flag has been removed. The fourth patch adds a file to sysfs to tell the user if reads/writes to a tape are blocked following a device reset.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
