Yes, that is correct. The F_BIT is set after every MaxBurstLength worth of DataIN, regardless of the ExpectedDataTransferLength. > But RFC states F bit to be set in the Final Data-in PDU only. > Wrong. The RFC states in Section 10.7.1. F (Final) Bit: For incoming data, this bit is 1 for the last input (read) data PDU of a sequence. Input can be split into several sequences, each having its own F bit. Splitting the data stream into sequences does not affect DataSN counting on Data-In PDUs. > FYI, > I am issuing a READ10 command with the following > > ExpectedDataTransferLength = 5120,6144 and 8192.
