Hi guys I'm looking for someone who is willing to commit
some changes to cam.
First is a fix so long timeouts work correctly:-
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=kern/161901
Its been discussed on the freebsd-stable and reviewed
by Eygene Ryabinkin, cc'ed in case your willing to
commit it Eygene?
The latest version included in the pr includes an addition
to Eygene's original patch to add support in the new mps
driver but apart from that all the same.
We've been running this for quite some time now off
8.2-RELEASE and had zero issues.
Next up is an enhancement to camcontrol to enable to
support ata secure erase functionality:-
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=bin/159833
Again been discussed on freebsd-stable no issues raised.
We've been using this quite a bit recently to perform
resets on ssds in order to restore their performance,
again no issues detected.
Would be great if someone could commit these as they
are really useful and with a very low risk might
be nice if we could see them in 9.0 :)
Regards
Steve
