From: Stephen M. Cameron <scameron@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Cap CCISS_BIG_PASSTHRU as well. If an attempt is made to exceed this, ioctl() will return -1 with errno == EAGAIN. This is to prevent a userland program from exhausting all of pci_alloc_consistent memory. I've only seen this problem when running a special test program designed to provoke it. 20 concurrent commands via the passthru ioctls (not counting SG_IO) should be more than enough.
