Bidi patches just broke again, by a patch that fixes some to-be-dead code. (scsi: BUG_ON() impossible condition) Could it not just be accepted into the tree now. It sat in -mm tree with no reports of breakage or complains. What are we waiting for? the way I see it there is nothing holding it back, it's not even dangerous anymore. You need Arm's accessors patch from scsi-pending Russell King Please send an Acked-by for this patch and the patch that removes the old esp drivers (http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-scsi/msg20914.html) Christoph Hellwig David S. Miller Maciej W. Rozycki Please send an Ack-by or Recommended-by to the removal of these old esp drivers. And the 3 patches (based on scsi-misc) [1] tgt: Use scsi_init_io instead of scsi_alloc_sgtable Was Ack-by the maintainer of tgt. Please accept independent of the other 2. [2] scsi: scsi_data_buffer The move to scsi_data_buffer. From here on any unconverted driver will not compile. [3] scsi: bidi support Actual very simple really. All parties involved, send your reservations if any NOW. Else James please put it in. Andrew could they be included back into -mm tree? Boaz
