| |
3.3-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: "Stephen M. Cameron" <scameron@beardog.cce.hp.com>
commit 395d287526bb60411ff37b19ad9dd38b58ba8732 upstream.
The default is too small (1024 blocks), use h->cciss_max_sectors (8192 blocks) Without this change, if you try to set the block size of a tape drive above 512*1024, via "mt -f /dev/st0 setblk nnn" where nnn is greater than 524288, it won't work right.
