[PATCH v4 1/6] multipathd: don't fail to remove path once the map is removed

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

 



In ev_remove_path(), if update_mpp_paths() fails, we delete the entire
map. However, since update_mpp_paths() happens before we call
set_path_removed(), pp->initialized isn't set to INIT_REMOVED, so
remove_map_and_stop_waiter() doesn't remove the path when in removes the
map.  But with the map removed, there's nothing to keep us from removing
the path.

Call set_path_removed() before update_mpp_paths() to avoid the odd case
of ev_remove_path() removing the map but not the path.
