dougmill@linux.vnet.ibm.com c6ea706042 block: sed-opal: Add ioctl to return device status
Provide a mechanism to retrieve basic status information about
the device, including the "supported" flag indicating whether
SED-OPAL is supported. The information returned is from the various
feature descriptors received during the discovery0 step, and so
this ioctl does nothing more than perform the discovery0 step
and then save the information received. See "struct opal_status"
and OPAL_FL_* bits for the status information currently returned.

This is necessary to be able to check whether a device is OPAL
enabled, set up, locked or unlocked from userspace programs
like systemd-cryptsetup and libcryptsetup. Right now we just
have to assume the user 'knows' or blindly attempt setup/lock/unlock
operations.

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.
