The t10.org front page mentions ATAPI links, and the links section leads to t13.org for ATAPI. And now? Besides that, Linux is not currently implemented to make everybody and their dog look like SPI with ID, LUN and everything, and until now you have not presented anything but phantoms (such as ATAPI tapes) to support your point why it should do that. No wonder people are losing interest in the discussion if you don't even answer questions what the current Linux interface don't give you, and you haven't seriously responded to my suggestion to simply scan all transports in libscg, for instance, "" (sg+pg), ATA:, ATAPI, RSCSI:. -- Matthias Andree - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [email protected] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
