If someone > have happyly harmonized with their patch, please ... both 254 and 128 are correct, it's a tunable parameter with some limitations. (ie. more than 254 breaks SCSI code) i have chosen 128 because it harmonizes with some other pieces of code better, so this is a hand-tuned parameter. But you will probably not see any difference, except maybe under high-end SCSI load. -- mingo
