The following dm-mpath patch may be considered PATCH 1/3 of this series: http://www.redhat.com/archives/dm-devel/2012-May/msg00006.html ----8<--------- Introduce scsi_dh_attached_handler_name() to retrieve the name of the scsi_dh that is attached to the scsi_device associated with the provided request queue. Returns NULL if a scsi_dh is not attached. Also, fix scsi_dh_{attach,detach} function header comments to document @q rather than @sdev.
