It's not only the drivers. I have this mighty unhappy feeling that some controllers (especially some of the SATA ones with internal state machine to emulate SFF) would be sniffing the commands and making the wrong assumption if 4KiB logical sector size is used, so we'll need to test various controllers. Some PATA-SATA bridge chips will definitely be having problems too. Then there are the USB and other bridges too but well those aren't libata's problem at least. :-) Thanks. -- tejun -- 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
