The patch titled scsi: fix incorrect SCSI transfer length computation from odd sized scsi_execute_async() transfers has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is scsi-fix-incorrect-scsi-transfer-length-computation-from-odd-sized-scsi_execute_async-transfers.patch *** Remember to use Documentation/SubmitChecklist when testing your code *** See http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/patches/stuff/added-to-mm.txt to find out what to do about this ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: scsi: fix incorrect SCSI transfer length computation from odd sized scsi_execute_async() transfers From: Mike Christie <michaelc@xxxxxxxxxxx> sg's may have setup a the buffer with a different length than the transfer length so we should be using the bufflen passed in as the request's data len.
