Subject: [PATCH v3 1/5] scsi: Adjust DBD setting in mode sense for caching mode page per LLD

Host sends MODE_SENSE_10 with caching mode page, to check if the device
supports the cache feature.
UFS JEDEC standards require DBD field to be set to 1.

This patch allows LLD to define the setting of DBD if required.

UFS requires DBD for all MODE SENSE(10) invocations, not just for
accessing the caching mode page. I think the flag name needs to reflect
this.

Also, I do not particularly like this being a scsi_host flag. All the
other flags we have in this department are per scsi_device.

My recommendation would be to add a set_dbd_for_ms flag to struct
scsi_device and then do:

sdev->set_dbd_for_ms = 1;

in ufshcd_slave_alloc() mirroring the existing:

sdev->use_10_for_ms = 1;

This makes the MODE SENSE tweakery consistent.

Thanks!

Hi Martin,

Thank you, good idea. I will make the change in your way.

Best regards,
