Can somebody tell me what is the difference between these reset commands (I'm 
developing an open
source application and I would like to know this): one is in the cdrom.h 
(CDROMRESET - 0x5312),

   This one seems to be handled only by discrete (non-IDE) CD-ROM drivers.

and the second with the third are in the hdreg.h (HDIO_DRIVE_RESET - 0x031c,

This gets handled as the usual IDE reset, i.e. wia SRST bit of the device control register.

WIN_DEVICE_RESET - 0x08)

This is not an ioctl() at all but ATAPI Device Reset command which can be use dto reset ATAPI device insted of the usual IDE reset.

Thanks
