    [PATCH] USB Storage: Force starget->scsi_level in usb-storage scsiglue.c · 28120be5
    Paul Walmsley 提交于
    When the usb-storage module forces sdev->scsi_level to SCSI_2, it should
    also force starget->scsi_level to the same value.  Otherwise, the SCSI
    layer may attempt to issue SCSI-3 commands to the device, such as REPORT
    LUNS, which it cannot handle.  This can prevent the device from working
    with Linux.
    
    The AMS Venus DS3 DS2316SU2S SATA-to-SATA+USB enclosure, based on the
    Oxford Semiconductor OXU921S chip, requires this patch to function
    correctly on Linux.  The enclosure reports a SCSI-3 SPC-2 command set
    level, but does not correctly handle the REPORT LUNS SCSI command -
    probably due to a bug in its firmware.
    
    It seems likely that other USB storage enclosures with similar bugs will
    also benefit from this patch.
