Hi Doug,
scsi_debug.c says:
MODULE_PARM_DESC(every_nth, timeout every nth command(def=100));
I don't see where the default of 100 is set.
#define DEF_EVERY_NTH 0
...
static int scsi_debug_every_nth = DEF_EVERY_NTH;
Can you clarify for me, please?
Thanks.

Hello James,
I've got a question on NPIV framwork that is included in FC transport
layer. I'm using 2.6.22-rc3 with your NPIV-based vport patchset.
If I understood correctly, vport_disable and vport_delete attributes
have to be listed under /sys/class/fc_vport/vport-2:0-2/, once the
'vport-2:0-2'

Hi,
This series of patches enables Aggressive Link Power Management for AHCI
devices, as documented in the AHCI spec. On my laptop (a Lenovo X60), this
saves me a full watt of power. On other systems, reported power savings
range from .5-1.5 Watts. It has been tested by the kind folks at
Use a stored value for which interrupts to enable. Changing this allows
us to selectively turn off certain interrupts later and have them
stay off.

This patch will modify the scsi and ata subsystem to allow
users to set a power management policy for the link.
libata drivers can define a function (enable_pm) that will
perform hardware specific actions to enable whatever power
management policy the user sets up if the driver supports
it. This
This patch will set the correct bits to turn on Aggressive
Link Power Management (ALPM) for the ahci driver. This
will cause the controller and disk to negotiate a lower
power state for the link when there is no activity (see
the AHCI 1.x spec for details). This feature is mutually
exclusive

Good day,
When doing make menuconfig one comes across CONFIG_BLK_DEV_SD.
The help file states that this is for scsi disks.NO MENTION IS MADE THAT
IT IS NEEDE FOR SATA DISKS AS WELL!
Would have saved me a lot of time if the help was up to date.

Sundry cleanups:
1) Use kzalloc instead of kmalloc.
2) Make sure probe worked before recalling the SCSI command to finalize
processing.
3) _aac_probe_container2 and _aac_probe_container1 return value goes
unused, change return to void.
4) Use a lower depth pointer reference to pick up the driver

We will do AHCI link PM -- presuming that I can be convinced that it
does not repeatedly park the hard drive heads, or something similarly
annoying on PATA-SATA bridges and similar setups.
