From: Heinz Graalfs <graa...@linux.vnet.ibm.com> While testing IPL code (booting) for s390x we faced some problems with cache=none on dasds (4k block size) on bdrv_preads with length values != block size.
This patch makes sure that bdrv_pread and friends work fine with unaligned access even with cache=none - propagate alignment value also into bs->file struct - modify the size in case of no cache to avoid EINVAL on pread() etc. (file was opened with O_DIRECT). This patch seems to cure the problems.
