The MODE SELECT(6) command allows handling mode page buffers that are up to 255 bytes, including the 4 byte header needed in front of the page buffer. For requests larger than this limit, automatically use the MODE SELECT(10) command. In both cases, since scsi_mode_select() adds the mode select page header, checks on the buffer length value must include this header size to avoid overflows of the command CDB allocation length field. While at it, use put_unaligned_be16() for setting the header block descriptor length and CDB allocation length when using MODE SELECT(10).

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
