I dont know why it is getting 192 size. I read PC-3 doc, > according to that target should receive 256 (for MODE SENSE 6) or 65,536 > (for MODE SENSE 10). I am confused why this is happening? Allocation Length is the amount of space the initiator has available for the response. It can be any length (including zero, which SPC4 is very clear is not an error). See section 4.3.5.6 Allocation length in spc4r14 or 4.3.4.6 Allocation length in spc3r23. -- Matthew Wilcox Intel Open Source Technology Centre "Bill, look, we understand that you're interested in selling us this operating system, but compare it to ours.
