To do it for real isn't rocket science, but it would require drivers to be modified to quiece the device and "clean up" (delete any dangling memory allocations, etc). Plus the associated work in sys$load_driver and in the command line interface. Doing a complete "unload" would be a bit more work and require a lot more driver discipline.


*IF* that had been done, would it implicetely also allow one to solve RWAST (and other nasty RW states) ? Wouldn't it implicetely have to be able to cancel all pending IOs safely to quiesce the device ?
