Request for input on new options for scsi_debug driver
Hello
During various fault injection scenarios it would be useful to be able to pick a specific starting sector and number of follow on sectors where a MEDIUM ERROR for reads would be returned against a scsi-debug device.
Right now this only works against sector 0x1234 and OPT_MEDIUM_ERR_NUM follow on sectors.
However during testing of md-raid and other scenarios I wanted more flexibility.
The idea is add 2 new parameters:medium_error_startmedium_error_count
If medium_error_start is set then we don't use the default of OPT_MEDIUM_ERR_ADDR, but use that set value.
If medium_error_count is set we use that value otherwise default to OPT_MEDIUM_ERR_NUM.
Should I send a patch for this, wanted to find out if this would be acceptable before I waste anybody's time having to review.
Regards
Laurence Oberman
