Hello,

for some reasons the kernel.org qla4xxx driver doesn't work for us. Version
5.01.00.08 seems to work a bit better, but all default sg-ioctl's are not
defined.

Adding these manually as in scsi/sg.c works, but IMHO is rather stupid. Is
there a sane way to call sg_ioctl()?
I mean it's static and also not exported and the file_operations ioctl
method is already taken by the qla4xxx driver.

Do I miss something?

Enventually we found the reason for all the trouble. It was a bug in one of 
the debian udev scripts (scsi_devfs.sh), which made it to override /dev 
entries with wrong device major/minors (debian bug Bug#468939).

Sorry for the noise.
