scsi_normalize_sense9

Normalize main elements from either fixed or descriptor sense data format into a common format.

Usage

int scsi_normalize_sense(const u8 * sense_buffer, int sb_len, struct scsi_sense_hdr * sshdr);

sense_buffer

byte array containing sense data returned by device

sb_len

number of valid bytes in sense_buffer

sshdr

pointer to instance of structure that common elements are written to.

The “main elements” from sense data are: response_code, sense_key, asc, ascq and additional_length (only for descriptor format).

Typically this function can be called after a device has responded to a SCSI command with the CHECK_CONDITION status.

1 if valid sense data information found, else 0;
