[SCSI] sg: cap reserved_size values at max_sectors

2007-04-17T22:09:56+00:00

This patch (as857) modifies the SG_GET_RESERVED_SIZE and SG_SET_RESERVED_SIZE ioctls in the sg driver, capping the values at the device's request_queue's max_sectors value. This will permit cdrecord to obtain a legal value for the maximum transfer length, fixing Bugzilla #7026. The patch also caps the initial reserved_size value. There's no reason to have a reserved buffer larger than max_sectors, since it would be impossible to use the extra space. The corresponding ioctls in the block layer are modified similarly, and the initial value for the reserved_size is set as large as possible. This will effectively make it default to max_sectors. Note that the actual value is meaningless anyway, since block devices don't have a reserved buffer. Finally, the BLKSECTGET ioctl is added to sg, so that there will be a uniform way for users to determine the actual max_sectors value for any raw SCSI transport.

[PATCH] Fix SG_IO timeout jiffy conversion

2007-01-30T04:32:03+00:00

Commit 85e04e371b5a321b5df2bc3f8e0099a64fb087d7 cleaned up the timeout conversion, but did it exactly the wrong way. We get msecs from user space, and should convert them into jiffies. Not the other way around. Here is a fix with the overflow check sg.c has added in. This fixes DVD burnign with Nero.

[PATCH] Fixup blk_rq_unmap_user() API

2006-12-19T10:12:46+00:00

The blk_rq_unmap_user() API is not very nice. It expects the caller to know that rq->bio has to be reset to the original bio, and it will silently do nothing if that is not done. Instead make it explicit that we need to pass in the first bio, by expecting a bio argument. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

[PATCH] fix SG_IO bio leak

2006-12-12T09:22:23+00:00

This patch fixes bio leaks in SG_IO. rq->bio can be changed after io completion, so we need to reset rq->bio before calling blk_rq_unmap_user() http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=116570666807983&w=2 Signed-off-by: FUJITA Tomonori Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

[PATCH] scsi: clear garbage after CDBs on SG_IO

2006-11-16T19:43:38+00:00

ATAPI devices transfer fixed number of bytes for CDBs (12 or 16). Some ATAPI devices choke when shorter CDB is used and the left bytes contain garbage. Block SG_IO cleared left bytes but SCSI SG_IO didn't. This patch makes SCSI SG_IO clear it and simplify CDB clearing in block SG_IO.
