But what about "Test Unit Ready" command ? I don't think that it is supported though sg_simple_aio.c uses io_submit(). > Also why in the example, only the SG IO write is asynchronous ?

I think that you can handle a SG command asynchronously by using read/write interface with a non-blocking fd. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-scsi" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
