This patch divides the scst_ext_block_dev() function into two separate functions to improve code readability and simplify maintenance: 1. scst_sync_ext_block_dev() - This function is for synchronous blocking and serves as the equivalent of calling the old scst_ext_block_dev() function with the SCST_EXT_BLOCK_SYNC flag. 2. scst_ext_block_dev() - This function is for asynchronous blocking. Additionally, the patch introduces the helper function scst_dev_ext_block() to reduce code duplication between the scst_sync_ext_block_dev() and scst_ext_block_dev() functions. This patch doesn't change any functionality.
Overview
This is the source code repository of the SCST project. SCST is a collection of Linux kernel drivers that implement SCSI target functionality. The SCST project includes:
- The SCST core in the scst/ subdirectory.
- A tool for loading, saving and modifying the SCST configuration in directory scstadmin/.
- Several SCSI target drivers in the directories iscsi-scst/, qla2x00t/, srpt/, scst_local/ and fcst/.
- User space programs in the usr/ subdirectory, e.g. fileio_tgt.
- Various documentation in the doc/ subdirectory.
Instructions for building and installing SCST are available in the INSTALL.md file.
QLogic target driver
Two QLogic target drivers are included in the SCST project.
The default driver is located in qla2x00t-32gbit directory and it supports up to 32 Gb/s FC. It is the newer one.
May anyone wish to switch back to the older driver that only supported up to
16 Gb/s adapters, it is located in qla2x00t directory. To make use of the
older driver build scst with environment variable QLA_32GBIT=no set.
