Thanks for the suggestion, that is an interesting idea. The problem is though, that qemu's uas implementation is modeled after the kernel uas driver (including some bugs which I've ended up fixing at both ends), I want to see how real hardware deals with abort commands (e.g. does it only acknowledge the abort, or does it also sends a sense code for the actual command).
