Well, what I'd do is printk all those values which turn off the dma to see exactly what happens. There are still some subtleties which could be the culprit. For example, the old code used to do buf = (unsigned long)page_address(bio_page(rq->bio)); and the new does buf = bio_data(rq->bio) however, the bio_data() accessor adds also the bio_offset(bio) to the buf. Perhaps that could be one thing. Also, the old check rq->data_len & 15 is now rq->data_len & alignment where alignment is 31 (1F), if i'm not mistaken, and that hits on data_len > F. -- Regards/Gruss, Boris. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-ide" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
