Perhaps the right use of DMA_BIRECTIONAL needs to be

Could it be used with a XDWRITE(10) SCSI command

using two scatter gather lists would be a better approach.

The C codepaths are essentially untested on this driver.
Has any part of this driver ever be tested with kernel 2.6?
Or compiled with gcc 4?
The C code paths have never been tested at all, the asm ones certainly
worked in late 2.4, but I don't; have an ISA box any more.

To unsubscribe
These series of patches result of
UFS1 write support stress testing, like running
fsx-linux, untar and build linux kernel etc
We pass from ufs::get_block_t to levels below:
pointer to the current page, to make possible things like
reallocation of blocks on the fly, and we also uses this pointer
During ufs_trunc_direct which is subroutine of ufs::truncate,
we try the first of all free parts of block and then whole blocks.
But we calculate size of block's part to free in the wrong way.
This may cause bad update of used blocks and fragments statistic,
and you can got report that you have
In blocks reallocation function sometimes does not update some
of buffer_head::b_blocknr, which may and cause data damage.

Please revert 2.6.19's 99a10a60ba9bedcf5d70ef81414d3e03816afa3f (shown
