[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index] iSCSI: SCSI Response Hdr - Sense Data LengthA question concerning the iSCSI - SCSI Response headers (op-0x21). When the target sends it with a DataSegmentLength > 0, it must automatically include a two-byte sense data header preceding any response data. This means all response data will be offset by this two byte header even if the sense-length is zero. Why wasn't the sense data length put in the byte 20 range of the response (currently marked reserved)? This would've avoided the extra work for initiators to have to handle response data for this PDU type differently from the others. Essentially, this forces another header handler on the initiator side for the two header bytes describing the sense data length.
