Subject: [RFC 4/8] scsi-ml: scsi_sgtable implementation
Date: Thu, 05 Jul 2007 16:43:42 +0300

>   As proposed by James Bottomley all I/O members of struc scsi_cmnd
>   and the resid member, which need to be duplicated for bidirectional
>   transfers. Can be allocated together with the sg-list they are
>   pointing to. This way when bidi comes the all structure can be duplicated
>   with minimal change to code, and with no extra baggage when bidi is not
>   used. The resulting code is the use of a new mechanism called scsi_sgtable.
>   (Old code will be removed in next patch for easier reviewing)

I think that it would be better to push this with Jens' sglist and
bidi support together to mainline. Changing the scsi-ml sg code and
testing it again and again doesn't sound nice.
