Thanks for the patch. tgt uses request_bufflen, bufflen, request_buffer, buffer to handle very large requests (that involves multiple bios). We can add substitutes into tgt specific data structure (scsi_tgt_cmd structure). I sent a patch related with scsi_tgt_cmd structure last week. http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-scsi&m=114960851929878&w=2 Will this patch be merged? I like to send a new patch on the top of it. - : 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
