[PATCH v16 26/45] sg: sense buffer rework

Douglas Gilbert
2021-02-20T02:06:25Z

The biggest single item in the sg_request object is the sense
buffer array which is SCSI_SENSE_BUFFERSIZE bytes long. That
constant started out at 18 bytes 20 years ago and is 96 bytes
now and might grow in the future. On the other hand the sense
buffer is only used by a small number of SCSI commands: those
that fail and those that want to return more information
other than a SCSI status of GOOD.

Set up a small mempool called "sg_sense" that is only used as
required and released back to the mempool as soon as practical.
