scsi_debug: allow huge transfer length for read/write commands
This change enables to test read/write commands with huge transfer length such as 1GB. For example: # modprobe scsi_debug dev_size_mb=1024 clustering=1 opts=1 # cat /sys/block/$DEV/queue/max_hw_sectors_kb > \ /sys/block/$DEV/queue/max_sectors_kb # fio --name=test --rw=write --bs=1g --size=1g --filename=/dev/$DEV \ --mem=mmaphuge --direct=1 The data type of max_sectors in scsi_host_template has been extended to unsigned int by the previous change. So we can increase it from 0xffff to 0xffffffff to allow such huge transfer length. Also, this increases sg_tablesize and max_segment_size, otherwise the maximum transfer length is limited to 64MB. (sg_tablesize * max_segment_size = 256 * 256KB) Signed-off-by: Akinobu Mita <akinobu.mita@gmail.com> Reviewed-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Reviewed-by: Martin K.
