Major new features in SG 3. x driver ( cf SG 2. x drivers )
- SG_IO ioctl ( ) combines function if write ( ) and read ( )
- new interface ( sg_io_hdr_t ) but still supports old interface
- scatter / gather in user space , direct IO , and mmap supported
The normal action of this driver is to use the adapter ( HBA ) driver to DMA
data into kernel buffers and then use the CPU to copy the data into the
user space ( vice versa for writes ) . That is called " indirect " IO due to
the double handling of data . There are two methods offered to remove the
2006-09-21 02:20:49 +04:00
redundant copy : 1 ) direct IO and 2 ) using the mmap ( ) system call to map
the reserve buffer ( this driver has one reserve buffer per fd ) into the
user space . Both have their advantages .
2005-04-17 02:20:36 +04:00
In terms of absolute speed mmap ( ) is faster . If speed is not a concern ,
indirect IO should be fine . Read the documentation for more information .
2006-09-21 02:20:49 +04:00
* * N . B . To use direct IO ' echo 1 > / proc / scsi / sg / allow_dio ' or
' echo 1 > / sys / module / sg / parameters / allow_dio ' is needed .
That attribute is 0 by default . * *

Historical note : this SCSI pass - through driver has been known as " sg " for
a decade . In broader kernel discussions " sg " is used to refer to scatter
gather techniques . The context should clarify which " sg " is referred to .
