The recent patch from Christoph Hellwig which kills off the last remaining remnants of the old style SCSI error handling.
...Is the new scsi-eh generally regarded as a good thing?
Andries,
If it isn't a good thing at the moment, James Bottomley intends to make it a good thing shortly.
The new scsi_eh is a better design, and in 2.5 the scsi mid level only has to concentrate on one rather than two error correction mechanisms. That should make it easier to get right.
