[PATCH 4.9 16/30] usb-storage: Add support for FL_ALWAYS_SYNC flag in the UAS driver

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



4.9-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Alexander Kappner <agk@xxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 8c4e97ddfe73a0958bb0abf7e6a3bc4cc3e04936 upstream.

The ALWAYS_SYNC flag is currently honored by the usb-storage driver but not UAS
and is required to work around devices that become unstable upon being
queried for cache. This code is taken straight from:
drivers/usb/storage/scsiglue.c:284
