Yep. It is not on the top of my head, but I remember something like INQUIRYs are emulated and thus do not have payload. > [ 7.927960] sd 0:0:0:0: [sda] Sector size 0 reported, assuming 512. > [ 7.927964] sd 0:0:0:0: [sda] 1 512-byte logical blocks: (512 B/512 B) > [ 7.927965] sd 0:0:0:0: [sda] 0-byte physical blocks > > Strange.. READ_CAPACITY appears to be returning a payload as zeros..? Yep. Because blk_execute_rq() does not put the proper callback and data do not get copied from sg's to bounce buffer. That is why I tried to use blk_mq_execute_rq() instead. Once I do that, data start getting read and booting stops elsewhere. Of course, I was suspecting that change alone is not valid and wondered about the status of scsi-mq in the first place, and if more changes are coming. So I it turns out "req->errors + req->resid_len" issue (you described earlier) needs to be addressed before going forward with libata (only?). > Not sure why yet some control CDBs are getting back the expected > payload, while others are returning zeros..
