Subject: [PATCH v2] fix sign extension with 1.5TB usb-storage LBD=y
Date: Tue, 21 Apr 2009 15:00:10 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1240351210.10627.30.camel@nimitz> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20090421211858.GA1926@parisc-linux.org>
Here's a patch implementing Al's suggestion. Not quite as trivial as
Matthew's, but even nicer aesthetically. (Description stolen from
Matthew's patch). I have verified that this fixes my issue.
--
Shifting an unsigned char implicitly casts it to a signed int. This
caused 'lba' to sign-extend and Linux would then try READ CAPACITY 16
which was not supported by at least one drive. Using the
get_unaligned_be*() helpers keeps us from having to worry about how the
extension might occur.
