| |
While experimenting with the data integrity support in the Linux kernel, i found that the block layer integrity code can send integrity data segments for a request that do not adhere to the queue limits. The integrity data segment can be larger than queue_max_segment_size and the segment does not adhere to the queue_segment_boundary.
It appears to me that the right way would be to apply the same restrictions that are in place for data segments also to integrity data segments. The patch works for my experiments and applies on top of the current Linux tree (2.6.35-rc5).
