Hi Al,

It took me way longer than I had hoped to revisit this series, see
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20180912150142.157913-1-arnd@xxxxxxxx/
for the previously posted version.

I've come to the point where all conversion handlers and most
COMPATIBLE_IOCTL() entries are gone from this file, but for
now, this series only has the parts that have either been reviewed
previously, or that are simple enough to include.

The main missing piece is the SG_IO/SG_GET_REQUEST_TABLE conversion.
I'll post the patches I made for that later, as they need more
testing and review from the scsi maintainers.

Perhaps you could look at the document in this url:
http://sg.danny.cz/sg/sg_v40.html

It is work-in-progress to modernize the SCSI generic driver. It
extends ioctl(sg_fd, SG_IO, &pt_obj) to additionally accept the sg v4
interface as defined in include/uapi/linux/bsg.h . Currently only the
bsg driver uses the sg v4 interface. Since struct sg_io_v4 is all
explicitly sized integers, I'm guessing it is immune "compat" problems.
[I can see no reference to bsg nor struct sg_io_v4 in the current
fs/compat_ioctl.c file.]

Other additions described in the that document are these new ioctls:
- SG_IOSUBMIT ultimately to replace write(sg_fd, ...)
- SG_IORECEIVE to replace read(sg_fd, ...)
- SG_IOABORT abort SCSI cmd in progress; new functionality
- SG_SET_GET_EXTENDED has associated struct sg_extended_info

The first three take a pointer to a struct sg_io_hdr (v3 interface) or
a struct sg_io_v4 object. Both objects start with a 32 bit integer:
'S' identifies the v3 interface while 'Q' identifies the v4 interface.

The SG_SET_GET_EXTENDED ioctl takes a pointer to a struct
sg_extended_info object which contains explicitly sized integers so it
may also be immune from "compat" problems. The ioctls section (13) of
that document referenced above has a table showing how many "sets and
gets" are hiding in the SG_SET_GET_EXTENDED ioctl.

BTW No change is proposed for this case:
ioctl(normal_block_device, SG_IO, &sg_v3_obj)
which is handled by block/scsi_ioctl.c

This would be a good time for me to address any "compat" concerns in the
proposed sg driver update.

I hope you can still take these for the coming merge window, unless
new problems come up.
