| drivers/scsi/sd.c - Incorrect Reporting of Blocks and Capacity of Large
| SCSI Disk Arrays
|
| This problem exists on both a custom 2.4.20 kernel and on a stock RedHat
| 2.4.18-19.8.0smp kernel. This problem report pertains to the latter kernel.
|
| For example:
|
| SCSI device sdb: -562247552 512-byte hdwr sectors (4294679426 MB)
| sdb: sdb1
| SCSI device sdc: -1997908992 512-byte hdwr sectors (76582 MB)
| sdc: sdc1
|
| Array Capacity
| Total unformatted capacity for Array 1: 1962814MB (1916.81GB, 1.87TB)
| Total unformatted capacity for Array 2: 1261809MB (1232.23GB, 1.20TB)
