I am not sure if the first mail got sent out. Here is the correct mail with the patch. Hey Lars, Here is what I meant. A Page for just something around 8-16 bytes seems wasteful. Plus there is no reserve. If you have to end up setting more bits maybe it is better to preallocate a command per device at create time, or maybe since there are four different combos I should have done it with this patch? This was made against 2.6.12-rc2. Only compile tested. Mike
