Re: Coverage of Data Digest when using Header Digests

Barry,

Considering that one of the reasons to have a separate header and data
digest was to enable data
to carried through proxies, virtualizers etc. the current thinking is that
the data digest will cover only the data and the header (including
extensions) will be covered by the header digest.

Julian,
     Is the Data Digest intended to cover whatever follows the 48 byte
iSCSI
header? In particular in a command frame which has a CDB > 16 bytes, uses
bidi, has immediate data, and is using both header and data digests - what
would the data digest cover?
