I don't agree with the need for this patch. See http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-scsi&m=112437379823295&w=2 I think it's also a wart to add this to the scan logic, and error prone. The error (or inconsistency) exists when the scan is not initiated by the transport, and the target doesn't exist. Consider the scenario where a manual remove of the target and sdevs is performed, followed by a manual scan request. -- james > -----Original Message----- > From: linux-scsi-owner@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > [mailto:linux-scsi-owner@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx]On Behalf Of > Christoph Hellwig > Sent: Monday, August 15, 2005 9:42 AM > To: jejb@xxxxxxxxxxxx > Cc: linux-scsi@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > Subject: [PATCH] allow a transport to pre-initialize starget_data > > > Add a new void *transport_data argument to scsi_scan_target so that a > transport-class can fill in known information before actually scanning > the target.
