It's bio->bi_iter.bi_size that would have to be increased to 64 bits. Which I suppose wouldn't actually increase the size of struct bio (when sector_t is 64 bits), since struct bvec_iter has padding right now... -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
