[SCSI] Retrieve the Caching mode page (version 2)
Some kernel transport drivers unconditionally disable retrieval of the Caching mode page. One such for example is the BBB/CBI transport over USB. Such a restraint is too harsh as some devices do support the Caching mode page. Unconditionally enabling the retrieval of this mode page over those transports at their transport code level may result in some devices failing and becoming unusable. This patch implements a method of retrieving the Caching mode page without unconditionally enabling it in the transports which unconditionally disable it. The idea is to ask for all supported pages, page code 0x3F, and then search for the Caching mode page in the mode parameter data returned. The sd driver already asks for all the mode pages supported by the attached device by setting the page code to 0x3F in order to find out if the media is write protected by reading the WP bit in the Device Specific Parameter field. It then attempts to retrieve only the Caching mode page by setting the page code to 8 and actually attempting to retrieve it if and only if the transport allows it. The method implemented here is that if the transport doesn't allow retrieval of the Caching mode page and the device is not RBC, then we ask for all pages supported by setting the page code to 0x3F (similarly to how the WP bit is retrieved above), and then we search for the Caching mode page in the mode parameter data returned. With this patch, devices over SATA, report this (no change): Oct 22 18:45:58 localhost kernel: sd 0:0:0:0: [sda] 976773168 512-byte logical blocks: (500 GB/465 GiB) Oct 22 18:45:58 localhost kernel: sd 0:0:0:0: Attached scsi generic sg0 type 0 Oct 22 18:45:58 localhost kernel: sd 0:0:0:0: [sda] Write Protect is off Oct 22 18:45:58 localhost kernel: sd 0:0:0:0: [sda] Mode Sense: 00 3a 00 00 Oct 22 18:45:58 localhost kernel: sd 0:0:0:0: [sda] Write cache: enabled, read cache: enabled, doesn't support DPO or FUA Smart devices report their Caching mode page.
