At the core it's some really nice code dealing with host-based SAS implementations. What's not nice is that it's not intgerating with the SAS transport class I posted, it's duplicating things like LUN disocvery from the SCSI core code, and adding it's own sysfs representation that's very different from the way the SCSI core and transport classes do it. Are you willing to work with us to intgerate it with the infrastructure we have?
