The patch titled
iommu sg merging: call dma_set_seg_boundary in __scsi_alloc_queue()
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
call-dma_set_seg_boundary-in-__scsi_alloc_queue.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree
The current -mm tree may be found at http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/mmotm/

Subject: iommu sg merging: call dma_set_seg_boundary in __scsi_alloc_queue()
From: FUJITA Tomonori <tomof@acm.org>
This is a one-line patch to add the following to __scsi_alloc_queue():
dma_set_seg_boundary(dev, shost->dma_boundary);
This is the simplest approach but the result looks odd,
__scsi_alloc_queue() does:
blk_queue_segment_boundary(q, shost->dma_boundary);
dma_set_seg_boundary(dev, shost->dma_boundary);
blk_queue_max_segment_size(q, dma_get_max_seg_size(dev));
I think that it would be better to set up segment boundary in the same
way as we did for the maximum segment size. That is, removing
shost->dma_boundary and LLDs call pci_set_dma_seg_boundary (or its
friends).
Then __scsi_alloc_queue() can set up both limits in the same way:
blk_queue_segment_boundary(q, dma_get_seg_boundary(dev));
blk_queue_max_segment_size(q, dma_get_max_seg_size(dev));
killing dma_boundary in scsi_host_template needs a large patch for
libata (dma_boundary is used by only libata and sym53c8xx). I'll send
a patch to do that if it is acceptable. James and Jeff?
