When scsi_get_sense_info_fld() fails (returns 0), it does NOT update the value of first_err_block. But sd_rw_intr() merrily continues to use that variable regardless, possibly making incorrect decisions about retries and the like. This patch removes the randomness there, by using the first sector of the request (SCpnt->request->sector) in such cases, instead of first_err_block.
Note that this bug has been around for a while, and is also present in 2.6.16.xx. This same patch applies there too. Cheers - : 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
