I am going to hack ppa.c (my only scsi host) to generate custom scsi reset
and so have a way to test the code... (David any hint btw ? ;).
I also seen the new scsi_done() that should fix the scsi_done() stack
recursion issue (because the new command will be sent from a bh handler if
I interpret correctly the mark_bh()...). I seen also the new nice scsi
error handler kernel thread. Unfortunately there are no device that are
using the new inteface yet ;))..
The stack recursion was a really bad thing for device driver no irq driven
as ppa (that would like to use the ppa_command callback). Unfortunately
ppa will still have to use the queuecommand and the ppa_interrupt()
(software) using bh handlers (or better timers) to run "light", because
sending a single scsi command via parallel port is a long task and we can'
t hog the CPU for so much time ;).
