Hi,
anyone know if the now already somewhat old Streaming Feature Set of
ATA/ATAPI 7 is going to be implemented in the kernel ata functions?
According to one web site that contains hdreg.h
http://www.koders.com/c/fidCD7293464D782E48F93EEF8A71192F1BF28FC205.aspx
there's at least some kind of mention in that include file about streaming
feature set, kernel 2.6.10. However in 2.6.16 it seems to be gone again.
Any ideas if this will be implemented, or how to use it with e.g. hdparm
right now?
I don't think streaming feature set is something to be supported at
kernel driver level. The usage model doesn't fit with block interface.
If you want to use it, the best way would be issuing commands directly
using sg. What are you gonna use it for?
