    scsi: add Synology to 1024 sector blacklist · 9055082f
    Mike Christie authored
    Another iscsi target that cannot handle large IOs, but does not tell us
    a limit.
    
    The Synology iSCSI targets report:
    
    Block limits VPD page (SBC):
      Write same no zero (WSNZ): 0
      Maximum compare and write length: 0 blocks
      Optimal transfer length granularity: 0 blocks
      Maximum transfer length: 0 blocks
      Optimal transfer length: 0 blocks
      Maximum prefetch length: 0 blocks
      Maximum unmap LBA count: 0
      Maximum unmap block descriptor count: 0
      Optimal unmap granularity: 0
      Unmap granularity alignment valid: 0
      Unmap granularity alignment: 0
      Maximum write same length: 0x0 blocks
    
    and the size of the command it can handle seems to depend on how much
    memory it can allocate at the time. This results in IO errors when
    handling large IOs. This patch just has us use the old 1024 default
    sectors for this target by adding it to the scsi blacklist. We do not
    have good contacs with this vendors, so I have not been able to try and
    fix on their side.
    
    I have posted this a long while back, but it was not merged. This
    version just fixes it up for merge/patch failures in the original
    version.
