[RFC 3/3] libata-scsi: add optimal transfer length to block limits VPD

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

 



From: Tom Yan <tom.ty89@xxxxxxxxx>

As of commit 6b7e9cde4969 ("sd: Fix rw_max for devices that report
an optimal xfer size"), the scsi disk driver (correctly) derive both
of the queue limits "io_opt" and "max_sectors" from the optimal
transfer length field.

In case we would like the two limits to be derived from a value
other than BLK_DEF_MAX_SECTORS for ATA disks in the future, this
patch has made it easy.
