Subject: scsi generic mem2disk patch for 2.6?
Date: Mon, 06 Feb 2006 23:14:40 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <43E848E0.6010901@adelphia.net> (raw)
Howdy,
There is a sg patch for 2.4 which allows a pci bus address, or rather a
virtual address, to be passed to the scsi generic driver in the
sg_io_hdr struct. This patch works wonders for doing fast IO between
an HDTV capture card and a bunch of disks.
Is there such a beast for 2.6? Does 2.6 already have this
functionality built in somehow?
If not, is there any reason why adding said functionality to the current
2.6.15 sg driver would not be doable?
see: http://sg.torque.net/sg/mem2disk.html
Thanks
