[PATCH 1/2] block: Allow to set max_dev_sectors for a queue.

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

 



From: Mateusz Nowak <mateusz.nowak@xxxxxxxxx>

max_dev_sectors is the upper limit for supported block size by the
block device. Since it is used for limiting up max_hw_sectors value
(and, as consequence maximum block size for request), lower level
driver may need to set it to non-default value.
This patch implements function allowing to do so.

Fixes: ca369d51b3e1 ("block/sd: Fix device-imposed transfer length limits")
