Subject: Re: [PATCH V2 3/5] ublk_drv: add SET_PARAM/GET_PARAM control command
Date: Wed, 27 Jul 2022 18:22:34 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220727162234.GB18969@lst.de> (raw)

As stated in the previous discussion I think this is a very bad idea
that leads to a lot of boiler plate code.  If you don't want to rely
on zeroed fields we can add a mask of valid fields, similar to how
e.g. the statx API works.
