Subject: [PATCH] scsi_debug: set resid to indicate no data-in when medium error
Date: Fri, 17 Dec 2010 19:16:06 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4D0BFD46.3030505@interlog.com> (raw)

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 471 bytes --]

As discussed in a thread on this list titled:
    "RFC: short reads on block devices"
this patch provides additional information associated
with a medium error. And that is that the data-in buffer
contains no valid data.

This patch is against lk 2.6.36

Changelog:
    set resid to the requested data-in length when a
    MEDIUM ERROR is simulated. This implies no valid
    data is returned in the data-in buffer

Signed-off-by: Douglas Gilbert <dgilbert@interlog.com>
