This can be done by placing an address of 0xffffffff (or the 64 bit equivalent) in the appropriate block descriptor field to a MODE SELECT -command. In signed (two's complement) arithmetic that value corresponds to -'\-1'. So a \fI\-\-count=\fR\-1 causes the block count to be set back to +command. In signed (two's complement) arithmetic that value corresponds +to '\-1'. So a \-\-count=\-1 causes the block count to be set back to the manufacturer's maximum recommended value. To see exactly which SCSI commands are being executed and parameters passed add the "\-vvv" option to the sg_format command line. |
