But 16383 kilobytes if 32766 sectors, which is still only half of what ATA disks should support. It would be interesting if other people also see an issue with too large I/Os on a m500 SSD when attached to an ATA controller. > sd 0:0:7:0: task abort: SUCCESS scmd(ffff88018c6b4700) > sd 0:0:7:0: attempting task abort! scmd(ffff8807a12e6800) > sd 0:0:7:0: [sdh] CDB: Read(10): 28 00 15 d4 f9 60 00 00 10 00 > scsi target0:0:7: handle(0x000a), sas_address(0x4433221107000000), phy(7) > scsi target0:0:7: enclosure_logical_id(0x5003048016aee700), slot(5) > sd 0:0:7:0: task abort: SUCCESS scmd(ffff8807a12e6800) > sd 0:0:7:0: attempting task abort! scmd(ffff88078d989800) > sd 0:0:7:0: [sdh] CDB: Read(10): 28 00 15 aa d2 f9 00 00 20 00 > > Stefan > -- > To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-ide" in > the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html ---end quoted text--- -- 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
