[PATCH v2] libata: remove scsi host lock and serial number usage

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

 



Much better...  Just updated #upstream-fixes with the below patch.

James just posted to linux-scsi
	[PATCH] Eliminate error handler overload of the SCSI serial number
but as Tejun pointed out, we _completely and entirely_ replace the SCSI
error handler apparatus with our own, thereby eliminating any
possibility that we would ever read or use cmd->serial_number.

Our lock profile is quite a bit improved.

Further simplifications and cleanups related to 'done' are possible,
but those are kept separate from the change below.

    [libata] remove SCSI host lock and serial number usage from ata_scsi_queuecmd
    
    cmd->serial_number is never tested in any path we reach; therefore we may
    remove the call to scsi_cmd_get_serial() inside DEF_SCSI_QCMD, the SCSI
    host_lock acquisition surrounding it, and our own SCSI host_lock
    unlock+relock cycle.
