After the earlier discussion with Boaz Harrosh, I ended up redoing the blk_rq_map_{kern|user}_*() stuff and am now in the process of testing it. The patchset is rather large (20+ patches). As the prealloc patch would fit on top of that series, I think it would be better to sequence things via git merge. Is there a git tree I can use for pata-2.6 changes? Or is the current linus master okay? Thanks. P.S.: Boaz, the above patchset implements blk_rq_map_kern_sgl() and kills the SCSI layer hack. That was the issue you were trying to solve, right? -- tejun
