[PATCH RFC 1/2] add transport scan callout to fix sysfs layout when scanning from userspace

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

 



When scanning hosts that implement FC rport support and
open-iscsi/linux-iscsi-5 hosts from userspace the sysfs
layout will end up placing the target's parent as the host
instead of some transport specific object. For FC the
target's parent should be the rport and for open-iscsi the
parent should be a session (that is if for open-iscsi our
using struct devices and our sysfs layout is correct).

The problem is due to the scsi host scan attribute calling
scsi_scan_host_selected, but the transports calling
scsi_scan_target. To further complicate matters iscsi does
not use a work queue for scanning since it initiates the
scanning from usersapce and it manages its channel and target
numbers from userspace. And, FC rport support is the opposite.

To fix this the inlined patch just adds a scan callout onto
the scsi_transport_template so scsi_sysfs can call it if set.
