[PATCH V2] scsi: add a new flag to set whether SCSI disks support WRITE_SAME_16 by default

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



When the SCSI device is initialized, check whether it supports
WRITE_SAME_16 or WRITE_SAME_10 in the sd_read_write_same(). If
the back-end storage device does not support queries, it will not
set sdkp->ws16 as 1.

When the WRITE_SAME io is issued through the blkdev_issue_write_same(),
the WRITE_SAME type is set to WRITE_SAME_10 by default in
the sd_setup_write_same_cmnd() since of "sdkp->ws16=0". If the storage
device does not support WRITE_SAME_10, then the SCSI device is set to
not support WRITE_SAME.

Currently, some storage devices do not provide queries for WRITE_SAME_16
support, and only WRITE_SAME_16 is supported, not WRITE_SAME_10.
Therefore, we need to provide a new flag for these storage devices. When
initializing these devices, we will no longer query for support for
WRITE_SAME_16 in the sd_read_write_same(), but set these SCSI disks to
support WRITE_SAME_16 by default. In that way, we can add
'vendor:product:flag' to the module parameter 'dev_flags' for these
storage devices.
