Could you provide pointers to the generic kernel > facilities you mentioned in your last post? Adding module parameters is a cop-out. It's what you do if you want to put zero effort into providing good interfaces for your driver. If an appropriate generic mechanism doesn't exist yet, you simply add one. When people add crazy module parameter knobs to networking drivers, we ask them to extend either ethtool or netlink, as appropriate. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-scsi" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
