Please include this > in the commit log. I'm confused about the test case. Do I add the test case for each SG support status of vhci_hcd and usbip_host in usbip_test.sh? Or, do I implement the test logic in vhci_hcd code that asks if usbip_host supports SG when attaching a remote device? I'm sorry but I don't know what exactly you want to add. Regards Suwan Kim
