Kai Mäkisara <Kai.Makisara@kolumbus.fi> says: The patch set includes changes to better support different device types. The first patch fixes two obvious typos in the existing definitions. The second patch adds a device type mask to the command definitions (struct opcode_info_t). This makes possible for different command definitions for different device types and makes easy to add opcodes specific to certain device types. The mask is 32 bits wide and the bit positions are derived from the Peripheral Device Type field returned from INQUIRY and used in the struct scsi_device. In addition to the mask, the second patch adds command filtering based on device type to command queuing and building of the response in Report Supported Opcodes. The third patch splits definitions of READ(6), WRITE(6) and PRE-FETCH/READ POSITION to versions for tapes and for other devices. The fourth patch changes obtaining device type from sdebug_ptype to struct scsi_device->type whenever it is set correctly. This improves support for using different device types in the same debug host. The patch set applies to 6.15/scsi-staging Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250310155557.2872-1-Kai.Makisara@kolumbus.fi Signed-off-by: Martin K. Petersen <martin.petersen@oracle.com>
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.
