Fixing the overflow aside, I question the validity of setting the physical block size to something larger than PAGE_SIZE as there's no way that that could really work in the current kernel. I would suggest doing something similar as we do with other 'invalid' settings that we cannot honor, print a warning and drop the queue limits to PAGE_SIZE. -- Jens Axboe -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-scsi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
