Hi Martin, The size of struct scsi_cmnd matters for embedded devices. One of the largest members of that structure is the SCSI pointer. That structure is relevant for SCSI-II drivers but not for modern SCSI drivers. Hence this patch series that removes the SCSI pointer from struct scsi_cmnd and moves it into driver-private command data. Please consider this patch series for kernel v5.18. Thanks, Bart. Changes compared to v3: - Split the libfc patch into three patches (libfc, bnx2fc, qedf). Removed the libfc private command information and also the status information from the bnx2fc and qedf private command data. - Removed the following statement from libfc_host_alloc(): WARN_ON_ONCE(sht->cmd_size < sizeof(struct libfc_cmd_priv)); Changes compared to v2: - Split the ips and nsp_cs patches at the start of this series such that there is only one change in each patch. - Changed the return type of ips_release() from 'int' into 'void' since the value returned by that function is not used. - Remove duplicate <scsi/scsi.h> include directives. - Use struct scsi_pointer directly instead of wrapping it inside another structure for drivers that do not use host_scribble as requested by Hannes. - Updated the error messages that refer to the SCp.ptr member if that member is removed by this patch series. - Removed WARN_ON_ONCE(sht->cmd_size < sizeof(struct iscsi_cmd)) from iscsi_host_alloc() and removed struct iscsi_cmd from the qla4xxx private data as requested by Mike. - Changed 'cmd - 1' into a container_of() expression in megaraid.h (Hannes). - Removed a cast from the mvsas driver (John). - Modified the comment in include/scsi/scsi_cmnd.h in the last patch (John). Changes compared to v1: - Removed BUILD_BUG_ON(sizeof(...) > sizeof(struct scsi_pointer)) statements. - Added two void casts in front of I/O statements as requested by Johannes. - Improved source code formatting in the aha152x driver. - Restored the DID_OK constant in a SCSI result expression. - Updated Reviewed-by tags.
