For the case you are trying to fix are you getting 0 or 64K from
userspace?  In the kernel code you changed to set the value to 8K it
looks like you got 0 from userspace. Is that right?

Are you setting node.conn[0].iscsi.MaxXmitDataSegmentLength in
iscsif.conf to 64K or did you leave it as the default? Just to make sure
we are on the same page I really mean did you set it in iscsid.conf or
with iscsiadm. I am not talking about setting above in the be2iscsi
create_conn callout.

If it is the default of 0, then I think when the code above is called
iscsi_copy_operational_params will have set conn->max_xmit_dlength to
ISCSI_DEF_MAX_RECV_SEG_LEN (8k). The conn->max_xmit_dlength value is the
one we use for final negotiated value so that is what gets passed to the
kernel.

If the target does not negotiate for MRDSL then it should stay 8k.
iscsi_session_set_params will then pass down conn->max_xmit_dlength when
login is done.

If I am looking at the code right, the only way we can get 0 in the
kernel is if the target sends 0 for MRDSL. iscsid was not expecting that
and will just set conn->max_xmit_dlength to 0 and that will get passed
down to all drivers incorrectly. If I am right then we need to do a fix
for all drivers.
