sg uses a scheme to reallocate a single contiguous array of all its
pointers for lookup and management. This didn't matter too much when sg
could only attach 256 nodes, but now the maximum has been bumped up to
32k we're starting to push the limits of the maximum allocatable
contiguous memory. Th

The sg driver is a SCSI pass-through while the bsg driver is
a pass-through the specializes in SCSI and other (usually)
storage related p

All of this logic was simplified back in '05 in the BSD drivers by adding
this to the top of the function:
u_int dummy_column;
if (cur_column == NULL) {
dummy_column = 0;
cur_column = &dummy_column;
}
and then stripping out the cur_column =

unsigned short is too small for sizeof(struct scatterlist) *
min(q->max_hw_segments, q->max_phys_segments).
This fixes memory leak with 4096 segments since 16 (likely sg size
with x86) * 4096 sets sglist_len to zero.
This might not happen without sg chaining support.

Hi,
Im wondering if anyone can help me out with the megaraid2 driver. Ive
got a Dell PERC 4/DC connected to a Dell powervault 220S, cluster mode
is enabled (write cache OFF) because eventually there will be two
machines connected to the powervault for shared scsi. Ive tried the
Dell PERC 4 card
