[PATCH 2/2] storage: Polling the sysfs for pool with "fc_host" type adapter

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The SCSI device corresponding to the vHBA might not show up in
sysfs yet when we trying to scan the LUNs. As a result, we will
end up with an empty volume set for the pool after pool-start,
even if there are LUNs.

Though the time of the device showing up is rather depended,
better than doing nothing, this patch introduces the polling
with 5 * 1 seconds in maximum (the time works fine on my
testing machine at least). Note that for the pool which doesn't
have any LUN, it will still take 5 seconds to poll, but it's
not a bad trade, 5 seconds is not much, and in most cases,
one won't use an empty pool in practice.
