The following sections are for programmers who want to use the generic
SCSI interface in their own applications. An example will be given
showing how to access a SCSI device with the INQUIRY and the
TESTUNITREADY commands.
When using these code examples, note the following:
- the generic SCSI interface was extended in kernel version 1.1.68; the
examples require at least this version. But please avoid kernel version
1.1.77 up to 1.1.89 since they had a broken generic scsi interface.
- the constant DEVICE in the header section describing the accessed
device should be set according to your available devices (see
section
sec-header.
