[PATCH] virtio-scsi: Change sense buffer size to 252

2014-03-06 Thread Fam Zheng
According to SPC-4, section 4.5.2.1, 252 is the limit of sense data. So
increase the value.

Hi Fam, how did you test this?

 Hi Fam, how did you test this?
 
Is there a specific reason _not_ to use the linux default?
The SCSI stack typically limits the sense code to
SCSI_SENSE_BUFFERSIZE, so using other values have a
limited sense.
Literally :-)

Cheers,

Hannes

Indeed I don't think this patch makes a difference.  Though I asked not 
from the SCSI stack perspective, but because right now both virtio-scsi 
targets (QEMU and vhost-scsi) are also truncating at 96.

I only tested the basic functionality of virtio-scsi. I'm doing more testing on
this and your fix on QEMU side now.

Thanks,

OK. So, do we need to lift the limit on other parts of SCSI stack as well?

 (QEMU and vhost-scsi) are also truncating at 96.
 

Oh, I missed that, I'll do a more thorough review and testing. Thank you for
pointing out.

Thanks,
Fam
