+Subject: [PATCH] SCSI: add 1024 max sectors black list flag
+
+This works around a issue with qnap iscsi targets not handling large IOs
+very well.
+
+The target returns:
+
+VPD INQUIRY: Block limits page (SBC)
+  Maximum compare and write length: 1 blocks
+  Optimal transfer length granularity: 1 blocks
+  Maximum transfer length: 4294967295 blocks
+  Optimal transfer length: 4294967295 blocks
+  Maximum prefetch, xdread, xdwrite transfer length: 0 blocks
+  Maximum unmap LBA count: 8388607
+  Maximum unmap block descriptor count: 1
+  Optimal unmap granularity: 16383
+  Unmap granularity alignment valid: 0
+  Unmap granularity alignment: 0
+  Maximum write same length: 0xffffffff blocks
+  Maximum atomic transfer length: 0
+  Atomic alignment: 0
+  Atomic transfer length granularity: 0
+
+and it is *sometimes* able to handle at least one IO of size up to 8 MB. We
+have seen in traces where it will sometimes work, but other times it
+looks like it fails and it looks like it returns failures if we send
+multiple large IOs sometimes. Also it looks like it can return 2 different
+errors. It will sometimes send iscsi reject errors indicating out of
+resources or it will send invalid cdb illegal requests check conditions.
+And then when it sends iscsi rejects it does not seem to handle retries
+when there are command sequence holes, so I could not just add code to
+try and gracefully handle that error code.
+
+The problem is that we do not have a good contact for the company,
+so we are not able to determine under what conditions it returns
+which error and why it sometimes works.
+
+So, this patch just adds a new black list flag to set targets like this to
+the old max safe sectors of 1024. The max_hw_sectors changes added in 3.19
+caused this regression, so I also ccing stable.
