Can do. Actually sg_req seems only ever has one element:
expander.c, smp_execute_task()
sg_init_one(&task->smp_task.smp_req, req, req_size);


I tried replacing with dma_map_single, but I feel the code is not as
clean as I need to manually set sg_dma_len() and sg_dma_address():
      req_len = sg_dma_len(sg_req) = sg_req->length;
      sg_dma_address(sg_req) = dma_map_single(dev, sg_virt(sg_req),
                                          req_len, DMA_TO_DEVICE);
      if (dma_mapping_error(dev, sg_dma_address(sg_req)))
           return -ENOMEM;
sg_dma_address(sg_req) is used in another function for unmap.

opinion?


What I meant was not using a struct scatterlist at all:
replace the 'sg_req' variable with a normal pointer, and then
do

	hdr->cmd_table_addr = cpu_to_le64(dma_map_single(dev, req, len, DMA_TO_DEVICE));

Any reason this won't work?

There seems to be some misunderstanding. Are you suggesting I change sas_smp_task?
./include/scsi/libsas.h
struct sas_smp_task {
	struct scatterlist smp_req;
	struct scatterlist smp_resp;
};

thanks,
John
