PATCH 1/1 ide-floppy ATAPI format capability (official)

Hi everyone,

This is Sam Varshavchik's ATAPI format patch, synced in with my update to the driver. It requires ide-floppy.c V0.96. This patch brings the driver to 0.97.

This patch updates ide-floppy to include ATAPI formatting ioctls. Like other devices, we allow O_NDELAY to open a drive without a disk, or with an unreadable disk, so that we can get the format capacity of the drive or begin the format.

This has not yet been extensively tested. Anyone with an LS-120 drive is welcome to format 1.44MB floppies with it. You will need Sams floppy formatting utility which is available at
http://www.email-scan.com/floppy.

Feedback is welcome.

Regards,

Paul Bristow

Linux IDE-Floppy Maintainer

to

0x4600,
+ * 0x46 is 'F' as in Format.

used to

capacity.

reporting in
