Here are two helper functions for processing sense data. These will allow the sd driver (and constants.c) to fetch the information field in sense data. For a medium or hardware error on a disk the information field is the lba of the first failure.
Changelog:
- add sense data helper functions:
- scsi_sense_desc_find() to find a given
sense descriptor (e.g. type 0 -> information)
- scsi_get_sense_info_fld() to get the information
field from fixed or descriptor sense data
Kai Makisara proposed the "find" function. For example, it will help the st driver find the Filemark, EOM and ILI flags which have been placed in the "stream commands" sense data descriptor.
