  [PATCH] scst_local: Fix bidirectional command support
  
  scsi_setup_cmnd() sets sc_data_direction to DMA_TO_DEVICE for bidirectional
  commands. Hence test SCpnt->request->next_rq instead of sc_data_direction
  to figure out whether or not a command is bidirectional.

  scst_vdisk: Fix zero-copy read for tmpfs
  
  For some filesystems, e.g. tmpfs, address_space.readpage is NULL.
  Disable zero-copy reading for such filesystems. See also shmem_aops
  in mm/shmem.c. See also inode_init_always() and empty_aops in fs/inode.c.

This is the SCST development repository. It contains not a single
project SCST as one can think, but a number of them, which are divided
as the following:

1. SCST core in scst/ subdirectory

2. Administration utility for SCST core scstadmin in scstadmin/

3. Target drivers in own subdirectories qla2x00t/, iscsi-scst/, etc.

4. User space programs in usr/ subdirectory, like fileio_tgt.

5. Some various docs in doc/ subdirectory.

Those subprojects are in most cases independent from each other,
although some of them depend from the SCST core. They put in the single
repository only to simplify their development, they are released
independently.

Thus, use "make all" only if you really need to build everything.
Otherwise build only what you need, like for iSCSI-SCST:

make scst scst_install iscsi iscsi_install

For more information about each subproject see their README files.
