Subject: [PATCH 1/2] revert sg segment size ifdefs
Date: Mon, 3 Sep 2007 18:40:20 +0900 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20070903103501F.tomof@acm.org> (raw)
The patchset is against Jens' sg chaining branch.
Jens removed old SCSI_MAX_PHYS_SEGMENTS hack and the maximum is always
128:
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/axboe/linux-2.6-block.git;a=commit;h=d6beb57f48231f5c012fb7d55b369bc0af6b0c41
I talked to James at linuxconf.eu and he likes to provide a way to
reduce sgpool memory consumption because with libata everyone
(including small machines) uses the mid layer.
This patch reverts sg segment size ifdefs that the current mid layer
has. Later we might do something better like relating
SCSI_MAX_SG_SEGMENTS with other config options like CONFIG_EMBEDDED or
just having SCSI_MAX_SG_SEGMENTS in menuconfig.
Now we have sg chaining code in -mm. As discussed before, it would be
nice to test sg chaining code in -mm with a small SCSI_MAX_SG_SEGMENTS
value like 32.

This reverts sg segment size ifdefs that the current code has in order
to provide a way to reduce sgpool memory consumption.
