  • Extern declarations in sysctl.c should be moved to their own header file,
    and then include them in relavant .c files.

    Move sg_big_buff extern declaration to scsi/sg.h

  • This sg driver patch addresses the problem with larger
    page sizes reported by Brian King in this post:
    http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-scsi&m=115867718623631&w=2
    Some other related matters are also addressed. Some of these
    prevent oopses when the SG_SCATTER_SZ or scatter_elem_sz are
    set to inappropriate values.

    The scatter_elem_sz has been tested up to 4 MB which should
    make the largest data transfer with one SCSI command, 32 MB
    less one block, achievable with a relatively small number
    of elements in the scatter gather list.

    ChangeLog:
    - add scatter_elem_sz boot time parameter and sysfs module
    parameter that is initialized to SG_SCATTER_SZ
    - the driver will then adjust scatter_elem_sz to be the
    max(given(scatter_elem_sz), PAGE_SIZE)
    It will also round it up, if necessary, to be a power
    of two
    - clean up sg.h header, correct bad urls and some statements
    that are no longer valid
    - make the def_reserved_size sysfs module attribute writable

  • Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
    even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
    archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
    3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
    git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
    infrastructure for it.

    Let it rip!
