Damien Le Moal 1b22cfb141 scsi: core: Allow enabling and disabling command duration limits
Add the sysfs scsi_device attribute cdl_enable to allow a user to enable or
disable a device command duration limits feature. CDL is disabled by
default. This feature must be explicitly enabled by a user by setting the
cdl_enable attribute to 1.

The new function scsi_cdl_enable() does not do anything beside setting the
cdl_enable field of struct scsi_device in the case of a (real) SCSI device
(e.g. a SAS HDD). For ATA devices, the command duration limits feature
needs to be enabled/disabled using the ATA feature sub-page of the control
mode page. To do so, the scsi_cdl_enable() function checks if this mode
page is supported using scsi_mode_sense(). If it is, scsi_mode_select() is
used to enable and disable CDL.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
