I think that's the wrong reason to make a function inline. Please consider moving scsi_result_to_blk_status() into one of the block layer source code files that already deals with SG I/O, e.g. block/scsi_ioctl.c. > diff --git a/include/scsi/scsi_cmnd.h b/include/scsi/scsi_cmnd.h > index 83f7e520be48..ba1e69d3bed9 100644 > --- a/include/scsi/scsi_cmnd.h > +++ b/include/scsi/scsi_cmnd.h > @@ -311,24 +311,44 @@ static inline struct scsi_data_buffer *scsi_prot(struct scsi_cmnd *cmd) > #define scsi_for_each_prot_sg(cmd, sg, nseg, __i) \ > for_each_sg(scsi_prot_sglist(cmd), sg, nseg, __i) > > +static inline void __set_status_byte(int *result, char status) > +{ > + *result = (*result & 0xffffff00) | status; > +} > + > static inline void set_status_byte(struct scsi_cmnd *cmd, char status) > { > - cmd->result = (cmd->result & 0xffffff00) | status; > + __set_status_byte(&cmd->result, status); > +} > + > +static inline void __set_msg_byte(int *result, char status) > +{ > + *result = (*result & 0xffff00ff) | (status << 8); > } > > static inline void set_msg_byte(struct scsi_cmnd *cmd, char status) > { > - cmd->result = (cmd->result & 0xffff00ff) | (status << 8); > + __set_msg_byte(&cmd->result, status); > +} > + > +static inline void __set_host_byte(int *result, char status) > +{ > + *result = (*result & 0xff00ffff) | (status << 16); > } > > static inline void set_host_byte(struct scsi_cmnd *cmd, char status) > { > - cmd->result = (cmd->result & 0xff00ffff) | (status << 16); > + __set_host_byte(&cmd->result, status); > +} > + > +static inline void __set_driver_byte(int *result, char status) > +{ > + *result = (*result & 0x00ffffff) | (status << 24); > } > > static inline void set_driver_byte(struct scsi_cmnd *cmd, char status) > { > - cmd->result = (cmd->result & 0x00ffffff) | (status << 24); > + __set_driver_byte(&cmd->result, status); > } The layout of the SCSI result won't change since it is used in multiple UAPI data structures. I'd prefer to open-code host_byte() in scsi_result_to_blk_status() instead of making the above changes. Thanks, Bart.
