UASP: updates and merges

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The UASP driver allows you to connect to UAS devices and use them
as SCSI devices.

I've merged latest master (f87813) and resolved a conflict in drivers/scsi/sd.c by adding back the truncation of the mode sense data.

The UASP driver saw the following update:

    [USB] UASP: factor out GFP flags and make them GFP_ATOMIC
    
    Factor out the GFP flags and make them atomic:
    1) The SCSI subsystem uses GFP_ATOMIC, e.g. before
    calling the host's slave_alloc callback (at the
    time of this commit).
    2) As we are a storage driver doing I/O, we should
    use the lowest denominator (highest priority)
    allocation, and of course we shouldn't sleep, thus
    use GFP_ATOMIC.

The branch can be found here (off of master):
