Looks reasonable to me.

I'd also really like a sysfs file that tells us if we're dealing
with a host aware device, as those report as TYPE_SBC.


Yes, eventually. But can't we defer that to a next patchset?
I'd really like to have this one in, as it makes dealing with ZAC 
devices _so much_ easier ...

[PATCH 4/4] sd: Optionally attach to ZBC devices

2014-07-30 Thread Hannes Reinecke
ZBC drives are close to disk devices, so sd.c is well
suited as a testbed for ZBC devices.
This patch introduces a module option 'attach_zbc' to
sd which will make the sd driver accept ZBC
devices as normal disk drives.

I'm happy to put the sd patch in if I can get another review for it.

But even if you want me to carry the libata bits I will need a clear
ACK from Tejun.  And I really think it would belong into the libata
tree.

[PATCH 4/4] sd: Optionally attach to ZBC devices

2014-07-29 Thread Hannes Reinecke
ZBC drives are close to disk devices, so sd.c is well
suited as a testbed for ZBC devices.
This patch introduces a module option 'attach_zbc' to
sd which will make the sd driver accept ZBC
devices as normal disk drives.
