[Iscsitarget-devel] VAAI Patch 1: WRITE_SAME_16 (0x93)

[Yucong Sun (叶雨飞)]

Hi,

Here's the final version of WRITE_SAME_16 implementation, and I've
verified that it works as expected by creating earger zero disk on
esxi and verified every is all 0 on the resulting disk. Please merge.

On concens about running out kernel memory, ESXi seems to be sending
only 1Mb writes, which is totally fine , and if it is truely a
problem, we can add a page in VPD to limit transfer length, it is not
implemented in this patch though.

Cheers.

here's a updated version, and this should cover some rare edge cases
(not sure whether in reality it would happen at all, I can't trigger
it in esx).
