-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA512 I can write to the delete file in the sysfs node for the scsi disk to cleanly stop the disk and detach the scsi disk driver, but I can find no similar way to delete the ata link, the pmp, the master link to the pmp, and disable the ata port. How are you supposed to disconnect a port multiplier without causing the kernel to go into error recovery because the link went dead and the device vanished? -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1 Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://www.enigmail.net/ iQEcBAEBCgAGBQJTUH2TAAoJEI5FoCIzSKrwhksH/0whe5rWffNrj+aZY+u+o4tQ tvNhCNStgxAK6hKi2higHSVHQbO12Vk1JgfNkp0IRDineMkBdGnb3gGFGxgP00V2 onKcPjIgmTL/0zlMx+MJHZRR3nh+6SkbJhdB2dqCDN1l5i4G9Je2lK2hIxs6DYZN zy7vFL2ftvSPIWC8Z/zVZIYhfiGHp7LoVxVAKSFJaPuU7MhHqdHihlUbaCBPMRJs YquXAg5euJ98WXSDfqG21hWJgT7L6UnQwV21MnsCuI3euAk83MKQFYClNhewu5kp C02WdWLrxNjc32bink/kPCHRgjgCC58YHG4zKxRNlOUFCYERVJk4IR9FeCTt3tw= =qvds -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-ide" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
