Subject: [PATCH 20/24] scsi: remove a very misleading comment
Date: Mon, 12 Jul 2021 07:48:12 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210712054816.4147559-21-hch@lst.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20210712054816.4147559-1-hch@lst.de>
Remove the comment above ioctl_internal_command, which doesn't
document this function at all.

- * The SCSI_IOCTL_SEND_COMMAND ioctl sends a command out to the SCSI host.
- * The IOCTL_NORMAL_TIMEOUT and NORMAL_RETRIES variables are used.
- *
- * dev is the SCSI device struct ptr, *(int *) arg is the length of the
- * input data, if any, not including the command string & counts,
- * *((int *)arg + 1) is the output buffer size in bytes.
- *
- * *(char *) ((int *) arg)[2] the actual command byte.
- *
- * Note that if more than MAX_BUF bytes are requested to be transferred,
- * the ioctl will fail with error EINVAL.
- *
- * This size *does not* include the initial lengths that were passed.
- *
- * The SCSI command is read from the memory location immediately after the
- * length words, and the input data is right after the command. The SCSI
- * routines know the command size based on the opcode decode.
- *
- * The output area is then filled in starting from the command byte.
