hello all (especially scsi people),
Im running 2.2.14-5.0smp on a dual processor i686, from the RH 6.2 distro.
Im trying to capture the request function registered by the scsi device
driver in 'struct blk_dev'. The following code captures the function and
invokes itself before the real request function. Im also logging the
number of buffer_heads requested for writes.
But, when I write a file like "/etc/termcap"(size 620k) on sda10
partition, I observe less number(around 221 blocks of 1k size) of blocks
being captured by my test code. The "df" command shows more number of
blocks being written on the disk partition.
My question is why is my test code not able to trap all the write IOs,
though, when I run a similar code for the IDE it shows me correct results.
SCSI gurus please enlighten me. Here is my test code.
Animesh Singh.
