Autosense requirement: msg#00188

Subject: Autosense requirement
How safe am I to assume that SCSI LLDD will return
autosense for a failed/incomplete command, as per
SCSI core (mid-layer) error handling requrement?
(e.g. ide-scsi doesn't return autosense)

In drafts I'm more and more seeing 
``targets MUST support and enable autosense.''

If indeed we put a ``MUST'' requirement on SCSI LLDD
to support and enable autosense, which will indeed
streamline things, then this will save me a an _irq_
spin lock over a simple spin lock...

What is the future of this requrement?
