+4. BSG Support
+------------------
+
+This transport driver supports exchanging UFS protocol information units
+(UPIUs) with a UFS device. Typically, user space will allocate
+struct ufs_bsg_request and struct ufs_bsg_reply (see ufs_bsg.h) as
+request_upiu and reply_upiu respectively. Filling those UPIUs should
+be done in accordance with JEDEC spec UFS2.1 paragraph 10.7.
+*Caveat emptor*: The driver makes no further input validations and sends the
+UPIU to the device as it is. Open the bsg device in /dev/ufs-bsg and
+send SG_IO with the applicable sg_io_v4:
+
+ io_hdr_v4.guard = 'Q';
+ io_hdr_v4.protocol = BSG_PROTOCOL_SCSI;
+ io_hdr_v4.subprotocol = BSG_SUB_PROTOCOL_SCSI_TRANSPORT;
+ io_hdr_v4.response = (__u64)reply_upiu;
+ io_hdr_v4.max_response_len = reply_len;
+ io_hdr_v4.request_len = request_len;
+ io_hdr_v4.request = (__u64)request_upiu;
