Hello: I use the following driver on Linux 2.6.31
Adaptec AIC7xxx driver version: 7.0
Adaptec 29160N Ultra160 SCSI adapter
aic7892: Ultra160 Wide Channel A, SCSI Id=7, 32/253 SCBs
Allocated SCBs: 4, SG List Length: 128
Serial EEPROM:
0xc33a 0xc33a 0xc33a 0xc33a 0xc33a 0xc33a 0xc33a 0xc33a
0xc33a 0xc33a 0xc33a 0xc33a 0xc33a 0xc33a 0xc33a 0xc33a
0xb8f4 0x585c 0x2807 0x0010 0xffff 0xffff 0xffff 0xffff
0xffff 0xffff 0xffff 0xffff 0xffff 0xffff 0x0250 0x6f4d
and have a program like this:
memset(&io_hdr, 0, sizeof(struct sg_io_hdr));
struct read_attr_cmd cmd;
cmd.opcode = 0x8C;
cmd.s_action = 0;
cmd.pad1 = cmd.pad2 = cmd.pad3 = cmd.pad4 = 0;
cmd.volid = cmd.partition = 0;
cmd.attrib_id = htons(attribs[idx].id);
cmd.size = htonl(buffer_size);
cmd.control = 0;
assert(sizeof(struct read_attr_cmd) == 16);
io_hdr.interface_id='S';
io_hdr.cmd_len = 16;//sizeof cmd;
io_hdr.mx_sb_len= sizeof(sense_b);
io_hdr.dxfer_direction = SG_DXFER_FROM_DEV;
io_hdr.dxferp = buffer;
io_hdr.dxfer_len = buffer_size;
io_hdr.cmdp = (unsigned char *) &cmd;
io_hdr.sbp = sense_b;
io_hdr.timeout = 10000;
if(ioctl(g_fd,SG_IO,&io_hdr) == -1)
(c.f. my earlier message)
On execution, it gets host_status=5 and the following messages are logged:Apr 13 20:41:35 fermat kernel: [10526.952015] st 6:0:12:0: [sg5] Send: 0xffff88020d8c8f00

Could you please provide assistance, or information if it is safe ( or if there already is a patch) to force the driver to do 16-byte commands?
Best regards, Julian Bangert
