[dm-devel] multipath-tools - checker for DDN S2A8500

[Frederic TEMPORELLI]

Hello,


When using multipath-tools 0.4.7, I would like to reports that DDN S2A8500 disk 
array reports a wrong status whith 'readsector0' checker. 'directio' seems to be 
the right checker for such storage system (see following logs).
Can you update hwtable.c in this way ?
