Yes, that's what it looks like now... Note I wrote "wasn't", it used to look like this: if (!rq_all_done(req, nbytes)) { end_that_request_chunk(..); return; } which of course didn't work, so it was changed to the above which then broke the assumption of what type of requests we expect to see in ide_softirq_done(). We can't generically handle this case, so it's probably best to just add this logic to __ide_end_request() - it's just another case for _not_ using the blk_complete_request() path, just like the partial case. -- Jens Axboe - : send the line "unsubscribe linux-scsi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
