Subject: [PATCH 0/3] target/iblock: Add WRITE_SAME w/ UNMAP=0 emulation

From: Nicholas Bellinger <nab@...ux-iscsi.org>

Hi folks,

This series for-3.8 adds support for proper WRITE_SAME w/ UNMAP=0 emulation
for IBLOCK device backends to follow MKP's WRITE_SAME patches that have
been merged for v3.7-rc1.

Currently it uses a bio_add_page() call for each sector in order to allow
scatterlist w/ page offsets to work, as blkdev_issue_write_same() currently
assumes underlying hw support + zero page offset.

So far it has been tested on target-pending/for-next code with iscsi-target
and tcm_loop fabric ports.

Please review,

--nab

Nicholas Bellinger (3):
  target/sbc: Make WRITE_SAME check differentiate between UNMAP=[1,0]
  target: Add max_write_same_len device attribute
  target/iblock: Add WRITE_SAME w/ UNMAP=0 emulation support
