[PATCH] S390 : Set SLI on PSF/PRSSD on Dasd ECKD initialisation

From: Ivan Warren
Date: Thu Aug 14 2008 - 14:27:11 EST


s390 Dasd ECKD Driver issues a Perform Subsystem Function/Prepare
for Read Subsystem Data with a length of 16.
However, some hardware (namely 3990/9390 and some version of ESS)
only take 12 bytes and therefore, an Incorrect Length indication is
returned, breaking CCW Command Chaining and leads to a failure to
initialize the DASD. This patch sets the SLI CCW bit to prevent an
incorrect length indication to be reported when the control unit
expects a length of 12 instead of 16.
