NetBSD Storage Roadmap
======================
@ -228,11 +228,6 @@ Semi-relatedly, it is also time for scsipi to become MPSAFE.
- Flush cache commands via DIOCCACHESYNC currently doesn't wait for completion;
it must not poll since that corrupts command queue, but it should use
a condition variable to wait for the flush to actually finish
- NVMe controllers supports write cache administration via GET/SET FEATURE, but
driver doesn't currently implement the cache ioctls, leading to somewhat
ugly dkctl(1) output; it would be fairly simple to add this, but would
require ld(4) attachment code changed to support passing arbitrary ioctls
to attachments
- There is no clear timeframe or release target for these points.
- Contact msaitoh or agc for further information.
