From: Matt Wang <wwentao@xxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit e662502b3a782d479e67736a5a1c169a703d853a ] Some commands (such as INQUIRY) may return less data than the initiator requested. To avoid conducting useless information, set the right residual count to make upper layer aware of this. Before (INQUIRY PAGE 0xB0 with 128B buffer): $ sg_raw -r 128 /dev/sda 12 01 B0 00 80 00 SCSI Status: Good Received 128 bytes of data: 00 00 b0 00 3c 01 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ...<............ 10 00 00 00 00 00 01 00 00 00 00 00 40 00 00 08 00 ...........@.... 20 80 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 20 00 00 00 00 00 .......... ..... 30 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ................ 40 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ................ 50 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ................ 60 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ................ 70 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ................
