For instance in drivers/usb/storage/unusual_devs.h we have an entry like: |UNUSUAL_DEV( 0x03f0, 0x4002, 0x0001, 0x0001, | "HP", | "PhotoSmart R707", | USB_SC_DEVICE, USB_PR_DEVICE, NULL, US_FL_FIX_CAPACITY), | That US_FL_FIX_CAPACITY is used later in scsiglue.c to set sdev->fix_capacity which is then used by sd_read_capacity() to substract one sector from the final size. In ub I see ub_sync_read_cap() and I don't see a change. Was my wording wrong or is this something else? > -- Pete Sebastian -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
