just wondering why you truncate target IDs to one byte? Also, why do you
limit LUN numbers to 16 bits?
Also will it be possible to extend virtio-scsi to support more than one
HBA without changing the ABI?
Other than that the patch looks good and I have been using virtio-scsi
successfully for some time now on my private clone of qemu.
Mit freundlichen Grüßen / Kind regards Christian Hoff
