Re: [patch 3/3] libata: handle AN interrupt
fyi...
For FC, we have several async events, and allow for LLDDs to send their own
data or augment the generic transport event w/ additional LLDD-data. The
infrastructure is implemented generically within the scsi midlayer.
We are using Netlink w/ broadcasts to deliver the events rather than
kobject_uevent().
We considered using a variant of kobject events, but the general consensus was
we didn't want to wrap transport events into the kobject infrastructure, and
using
netlink natively allowed for transport data to be sent with the event.
Additionally,
with the broadcast, we could support any number of tools concurrently listening
for
change events. To date, this has worked very well. You may want to consider
this,
especially if the types of events is expected to grow beyond the simple change
notification.

When we get an SDB FIS with the 'N' bit set, we should send
an event to user space to indicate that there has been a
media change. The ahci host controller will send the
event via KOBJ_CHANGE uevent.

I don't think this is right. If you're gonna make media_change_event
capability generic, you gotta make event delivery generic too. You can
make it a genhd event and make genhd supply the interface function, say,
genhd_notify_media_change() which is then forwarded by SCSI layer.
Thanks.

I don't think this is right. If you're gonna make media_change_event
capability generic, you gotta make event delivery generic too. You can
make it a genhd event and make genhd supply the interface function, say,
genhd_notify_media_change() which is then forwarded by SCSI layer.
Thanks.
