Data provided by a client to an executeCDB operation.
Name Description cdbLength The length of the command bytes (cdb), in bytes. cdb The actual command bytes to be sent to the device. These are not checked by the driver. senseLength The requested maximum sense length, in bytes. actualSenseLength The actual number of sense bytes transferred. If the driver does not support autosense, this field will always return zero. senseBuffer The buffer for the sense data. This buffer must have already been prepared for IO by the caller. The buffer must contain the data direction. timeoutSeconds The timeout for the command, in seconds. dataLength The requested number of data bytes to transfer with the command, or zero if no data is to be transferred. actualDataLength The actual number of data bytes transferred. dataBuffer The buffer for the data. This buffer must have already been prepared for IO by the caller. The buffer must contain the data direction. status The status reported by the device at command completion. The contents of thisfield will depend on the type of transport (e.g. SCSI, ATAPI, etc). Some drivers may not support the return of status information and will zero this field.
