The T10 SCSI domain validation draft sdv-r08b.pdf section 5.4 describes data pattern "d" like this: d) shifting bit (0000h, FFFEh, 0000h, FFFDh, ... then FFFFh, 0001h, FFFFh, 0002h, ...) The current code in scsi_transport_spi.c produces the following data pattern: FF FF 00 00 | FE FF 01 00 | FC FF 03 00 | F8 FF 07 00 F0 FF 0F 00 | E0 FF 1F 00 | C0 FF 3F 00 | 80 FF 7F 00 (other patterns here) 00 FF FF 00 | 00 FE FF 01 | 00 FC FF 03 | 00 F8 FF 07 00 F0 FF 0F | 00 E0 FF 1F | 00 C0 FF 3F | 00 80 FF 7F (other patterns here) 00 00 FF FF | 01 00 FE FF | 03 00 FC FF | 07 00 F8 FF 0F 00 F0 FF | 1F 00 E0 FF | 3F 00 C0 FF | 7F 00 80 FF (other patterns here) FF 00 00 FF | FF 01 00 FE | FF 03 00 FC | FF 07 00 F8 FF 0F 00 F0 | FF 1F 00 E0 | FF 3F 00 C0 | FF 7F 00 80 This patch changes the data pattern to match sdv-r08b.pdf, like this: 00 00 FF FE | 00 00 FF FD | 00 00 FF FB | 00 00 FF F7 00 00 FF EF | 00 00 FF DF | 00 00 FF BF | 00 00 FF 7F 00 00 FE FF | 00 00 FD FF | 00 00 FB FF | 00 00 F7 FF 00 00 EF FF | 00 00 DF FF | 00 00 BF FF | 00 00 7F FF FF FF 00 01 | FF FF 00 02 | FF FF 00 04 | FF FF 00 08 FF FF 00 10 | FF FF 00 20 | FF FF 00 40 | FF FF 00 80 FF FF 01 00 | FF FF 02 00 | FF FF 04 00 | FF FF 08 00 FF FF 10 00 | FF FF 20 00 | FF FF 40 00 | FF FF 80 00 This data pattern tests simultaneously turning on or off all bits but one.
