Looks like the bug-report is out of sync. I see that the bug has been fixed in B54. Here is the link to source gate which shows that the fix is in the gate : http://src.opensolaris.org/source/search?q=&defs=&refs=&path=&hist=6424510&project=%2Fonnv And here are the diffs : http://src.opensolaris.org/source/diff/onnv/onnv-gate/usr/src/uts/common/io/scsi/targets/sd.c?r2=%2Fonnv%2Fonnv-gate%2Fusr%2Fsrc%2Futs%2Fcommon%2Fio%2Fscsi%2Ftargets%2Fsd.c%403169&r1=%2Fonnv%2Fonnv-gate%2Fusr%2Fsrc%2Futs%2Fcommon%2Fio%2Fscsi%2Ftargets%2Fsd.c%403138 Thanks and regards, Sanjeev. > > Does anyone know how to push for resolution on this?
