[PATCH 2/2] [block]: Skip refresh_total_sectors() for scsi-generic devices

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Nicholas Bellinger <nab@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

This patch adds a BlockDriverState->sg check in block.c:bdrv_common_open()
to skip the new refresh_total_sectors() call once we know we are working with
a scsi-generic device.

We go ahead and skip this call for scsi-generic devices because
block/raw-posix.c:raw_getlength() -> lseek() will return -ESPIPE.
