Michael, as the author of the this commit, could you please look into this issue? We could revert your patch, which appears to work for some users, but that would again break setups with PAGE_SIZE == 64K. (I assume that Jonáš and Kolbjørn are not building with PAGE_SIZE == 64K.) > > ------------[ cut here ]------------ > kernel BUG at drivers/ata/pata_macio.c:544! https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/v6.11-rc3/drivers/ata/pata_macio.c#L544 It seems that the while (sg_len) loop does not play nice with the new .max_segment_size. > Oops: Exception in kernel
