This is the same as last time as it was posted, but with Kai's patches
merged and we now pass the bytes value to scsi_execute_async.


This does not work "out of the box". The changes in st are almost the same ones than before but the world around st has changed ;-) This has revealed at least one bug in st that is fixed by the patch at the end of this

ok thanks.

message. After this patch some simple tests succeed but there seem to be still problems with larger requests. I don't have time to continue debugging just now but I should be able to post more results during this weekend.


Was there a oops or lockup or any debug output you can send me? I will try some more large request tests with scsi_debug. You also have to compile your kernel with SCSI_MAX_PHYS_SEGMENTS == 255 to get larger requests now.
