LT,
Will this maddness insure that the granularity of the request will be dependent to the k_dev_t? Specifically, can one make KIOBUFS do the sizing of buffer to match the ideal or specified size limits imposed by a given block device? Otherwise I will need to design an sub-request layer to reduce the pain of restarting the entire request because of the huge DMA-PRD-Chain that has no clue how to report error location and allow a restart from NxPRD's before the error.
Cheers,
