The program 'camcontrol devlist' does not. Interfaces don't "have" to be clean, and neither does code that accesses those interfaces. Cleanliness is a choice made by the developer, and in this case I'm chosing the clean path rather than the quick-n-dirty path. The information in question is available through 'camcontrol negotiate -v', (once I commit the patch) so I don't think there's an urgent need for this, anyway. We've got time to do this the right way instead of throwing something in there that will likely stay there a long time. > You should be able to do XPT_PATH_INQ for paths 0 through 0xff to get at the > list of SIMs. Actually, you can't do that at the moment. To do a path inquiry, you need a device to do a path inquiry on. (i.e. path inquiries can only be done via the pass driver at the moment, they aren't supported through the xpt driver.)
