SCSI question

I have a forwarded question about a fibre channel scsi driver:

>We are running into a problem with data underrun. We are not sure
>how to report this problem back to the OS. The normal behavior in other OS
>is to indicate command complete with a residual count of certain length.
>
>In the scsi.h of 2.2.12 kernel, we do not have any field that can be used to
>report this info. Should we then report an error ? We did see that the
>scsi.h file in the 2.3 kernel has a new field defined called "resid". Is
>this the reason they added it ?

Any help would be appreciated.
