Sanitize and other commands for External SSD Media
I am trying to implement the Sanitize and Firmware Upgrade commands for an external card connected via the Thunderbolt Interface (4.0) Should we consider writing a Kext based off IOBlockStorageDriver or IOPCI interface. NVMController does not expose anything more than the 3 API.. SmartReadData, getLogData and getIdentifyData. The device is connected only on MacOS.(mini and macbooks) My ioregistry look like : | | | +-o DSB1@1 <class IOPCIDevice, id 0x1000003dc, registered, matched, active, busy 0 (194 ms), retain 14> | | | | +-o IOPP <class IOPCI2PCIBridge, id 0x100000457, registered, matched, active, busy 0 (182 ms), retain 8> | | | | +-o UPS0@0 <class IOPCIDevice, id 0x1000003e0, registered, matched, active, busy 0 (182 ms), retain 17> | | | | +-o IOPP <class IOPCI2PCIBridge, id 0x100000477, registered, matched, active, busy 0 (181 ms), retain 8> | | | | +-o pci-bridge@0 <class IOPCIDevice, id 0x1000003e1, registered, matched, active, busy 0 (181 ms), retain 11> | | | | +-o IOPP <class IOPCI2PCIBridge, id 0x10000047d, registered, matched, active, busy 0 (180 ms), retain 8> | | | | +-o pci1987,5021@0 <class IOPCIDevice, id 0x1000003e2, registered, matched, active, busy 0 (180 ms), retain 12> | | | | +-o IONVMeController <class IONVMeController, id 0x100000486, registered, matched, active, busy 0 (166 ms), retain 11> | | | | +-o IONVMeBlockStorageDevice@1 <class IONVMeBlockStorageDevice, id 0x10000048c, registered, matched, active, busy 0 (166 ms), retain 11> | | | | +-o IOBlockStorageDriver <class IOBlockStorageDriver, id 0x10000048d, registered, matched, active, busy 0 (166 ms), retain 8> | | | | +-o Prograde Digital Media <class IOMedia, id 0x10000048e, registered, matched, active, busy 0 (166 ms), retain 12> | | | | +-o IOMediaBSDClient <class IOMediaBSDClient, id 0x100000490, registered, matched, active, busy 0 (0 ms), retain 6> | | | | +-o IOGUIDPartitionScheme <class IOGUIDPartitionScheme, id 0x100000492, !registered, !matched, active, busy 0 (0 ms), retain 7> | | | | +-o EFI System Partition@1 <class IOMedia, id 0x1000004d7, registered, matched, active, busy 0 (0 ms), retain 10> | | | | | +-o IOMediaBSDClient <class IOMediaBSDClient, id 0x1000004db, registered, matched, active, busy 0 (0 ms), retain 6> | | | | +-o Untitled 2@2 <class IOMedia, id 0x1000004d9, registered, matched, active, busy 0 (0 ms), retain 11> | | | | +-o IOMediaBSDClient <class IOMediaBSDClient, id 0x1000004df, registered, matched, active, busy 0 (0 ms), retain 7>Any pointers on this would be helpful.
