The REPORT DEVICE IDENTIFIER command requests that the logical unit send device identification information
to the initiator.
Service Action: Must be 05h.
For any value other than 05h, the command is terminated with a CHECK CONDITION status, the sense key is set
to ILLEGAL REQUEST, and the ASC/ASCQ is set to INVALID FIELD IN CDB.
Allocation Length: If the Allocation Length is not sufficient to allow all of the parameter data to be returned, the
first portion of the data is returned (i.e., truncated). This is not considered an error.
Note: The actual length of the parameter data is calculated using the Identifier Length field in the parameter data
plus 4.

Identifier Length: Specifies the length in bytes of the Identifier field. If the Allocation Length field in the CDB is too
small to transfer the header and all of the identifiers, the length is not adjusted to reflect the truncation.
The identifier length is initially equal to zero, and is changed only by a successful SET DEVICE IDENTIFIER
command.
Identifier: The value reported is the last value provided by a successful SET DEVICE IDENTIFIER command.
The value of the identifier is changed only by a successful SET DEVICE IDENTIFIER command.
The identifier value persists through resets, power cycles, media write operations, and media replacement.
If Identifier Length = 00000000h, this field is not present or has zero length.
