    I am getting an EFAULT error 14 (Bad Address) on AIX 5L but I don't see this on AIX 4.3.3. The application was built on AIX 4.3.3.
    struct sc_iocmd scmd;

    bzero((char *)&scmd, sizeof(scmd));

    scmd.scsi_cdb[0] = 0x12;
    scmd.scsi_cdb[1] = 0x0;
    scmd.scsi_cdb[2] = 0x0;
    scmd.scsi_cdb[3] = 0x0;
    scmd.scsi_cdb[4] = 0x38;
    scmd.scsi_cdb[5] = 0x0;

    scmd.command_length = 0x06;

    scmd.buffer = inq_data;

    scmd.data_length = sizeof (inq_data);

    scmd.flags = B_READ;

    scmd.timeout_value = 60

    if ( ioctl(fd, STIOCMD, &scmd) < 0 ) {
    printf( "ioctl error on inquiry\n");
    printf( "Errno: %d\n", errno);

    (The device I am accessing is a tape drive.)

    Is STIOCMD supported on 5L?

    As I mentioned above I don't have any problems on 4.3.3.

    Thanks!
