SCST user space module is available

Module scst_user and user space utility to test it are available in the SCST SVN. SCST user space module is a device handler for SCST, which provides an interface between SCST and the user space, which allows to create pure user space devices. The simplest example, where one would want it is if he/she wants to write a VTL. With scst_user he/she can write it purely in the user space. Or one would want it if he/she needs some sophisticated for kernel space processing of the passed data, like encrypting them or making snapshots.

Description of scst_user interface with user space is available on http://scst.sourceforge.net/doc/scst_user_spec.txt and in the SVN in doc subdirectory.

You can download SCST SVN using command line:
svn co https://svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/scst
