Subject: Re: [PATCH 01/10] block: make generic_make_request handle arbitrarily sized bios
Date: Tue, 28 Apr 2015 13:43:20 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20150428114320.GA9790@lst.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1430203717-13307-2-git-send-email-mlin@kernel.org>

This seems to lack support for QUEUE_FLAG_SG_GAPS to work around
the retarded PPR format in the NVMe driver.  I'm actually not
sure we have a way to reproduce them for BLOCK_PC requests, but I think
we should make sure to properly handle them.

Maybe Keith or Jens have a good reproducer for these.
