fs/bio.c - Hardcoded sector size ?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi

In bio_endio()  there is the follow line:- 

	bio->bi_sector += (bytes_done >> 9);

and there is a similiar line assuming a 512byte sector in 
__bio_add_page() .

Is this a bug as the the actual  block size  should be available
from bio->bi_bdev->bd_block_size surely - or is some clever code
where all block devices have to translate back to 512 byte sectors
for bio s.

TTFN
