ATA relies so heavily on scsi that it needs to be converted at the

ATA adds padding to scatterlists in scsi commands, but because there was
no good way of appending to those scatterlists, it had to use boutique
iterators to make sure

The functions time_before, time_before_eq, time_after, and time_after_eq
are more robust for comparing jiffies against other values.
A simplified version of the semantic patch making this change is as follows:

In the patch cc154ac64aa8d3396b187f64cef01ce67f433324, Al Viro observed
that the proper way to compute the distance between two structure fields is
to use offsetof() or a cast to a pointer to character. The same change can
be applied to a few more files.

(PS, I haven't followed the sg chaining discussion. Why is sg chaining
an optional feature? Performance overhead on low end machines?)
The idea of SG chaining is to allow drivers that wish to take advantage
of it to increase their transfer

Eric,
Sorry about the confusion and thank you very much for the references to
other support addresses.
You may want to consider removing the [EMAIL PROTECTED] e-mail address from
MAINTAINERS. They really have no idea how to respond to Linux kernel

Thank you again!

Some scsi drivers like ips access to sglist in a tricky way.
Indeed. I fail to see how this code works, in fact:
