This is a note to let you know that I have just added a patch titled libata: introduce ata_host->n_tags to avoid oops on SAS controllers to the linux-3.13.y-queue branch of the 3.13.y.z extended stable tree which can be found at: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=ubuntu/linux.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/linux-3.13.y-queue This patch is scheduled to be released in version 3.13.11.6. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to this tree, please reply to this email. For more information about the 3.13.y.z tree, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Dev/ExtendedStable Thanks. -Kamal ------ From f5a26d6a9117b86c42256b8e75e929a3aff656ba Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Date: Wed, 23 Jul 2014 09:05:27 -0400 Subject: libata: introduce ata_host->n_tags to avoid oops on SAS controllers commit 1a112d10f03e83fb3a2fdc4c9165865dec8a3ca6 upstream. 1871ee134b73 ("libata: support the ata host which implements a queue depth less than 32") directly used ata_port->scsi_host->can_queue from ata_qc_new() to determine the number of tags supported by the host; unfortunately, SAS controllers doing SATA don't initialize ->scsi_host leading to the following oops.

As SAS hosts are never registered, this will give them the same ATA_MAX_QUEUE - 1 as before. Note that we can't use scsi_host->can_queue directly for SAS hosts anyway as they can go higher than the libata maximum.
