NAME
       scsi_find_sense_descr - find descriptor in SCSI sense data

SYNOPSIS
       #include <sys/scsi/scsi.h>

       uint8_t *scsi_find_sense_descr(uint8_t *sense_buffer, int sense_buf_len,
	    int req_descr_type);

INTERFACE LEVEL
       Solaris DDI specific (Solaris DDI).

PARAMETERS
       sense_buffer	 Pointer  to  a buffer containing SCSI descriptor sense data. The data is expected in wire format starting at the response
			 code.

       sense_buf_len	 Integer that contains the length of sense buffer in bytes.

       req_descr_type	 Integer that contains the descriptor type value for the desired sense descriptor.

DESCRIPTION
       The scsi_find_sense_descr() function is used to obtain a pointer to a specific descriptor  type,  specified  by	req_descr_type,  within  a
       descriptor  sense buffer. Before returning the pointer, scsi_find_sense_descr() verifies that the entire descriptor is present based on the
       length provided in sense_buf_len.

       Any value for req_descr_type can be requested. The following descriptor types are already defined:

	 #define DESCR_INFORMATION	   0x00
	 #define DESCR_COMMAND_SPECIFIC    0x01
	 #define DESCR_SENSE_KEY_SPECIFIC  0x02
	 #define DESCR_FRU		   0x03
	 #define DESCR_STREAM_COMMANDS	   0x04
	 #define DESCR_BLOCK_COMMANDS	   0x05
	 #define DESCR_OSD_OID		   0x06
	 #define DESCR_OSD_RESP_INTEGRITY  0x07
	 #define DESCR_OSD_ATTR_ID	   0x08

       Drivers should use scsi_validate_sense(9F) to ensure that the sense buffer contains valid descriptor sense data.

RETURN VALUES
       The scsi_find_sense_descr() function returns a pointer to a sense descriptor of the requested type if a descriptor of that type exists.	If
       no such descriptor exists, scsi_find_sense_descr() returns NULL.

CONTEXT
       The scsi_find_sense_descr() function can be called from user or interrupt context.
