Problem Details: sg driver rounds up the length in struct scatterlist to be a multiple of 512 in some conditions. So LLDs can't use the data length in a sg list to calculate residual. Instead, the length in struct scsi_cmnd should be used. [Geert: the variable buflen already contains scsi_bufflen(cmd)] Signed-off-by:...
