This patch is for 2.6.16. It fixes a bug in zfcp which provokes a race in scsi_scan.c. Finally this can lead to an Oops like: kernel BUG at fs/sysfs/symlink.c:87! ... sysfs_create_link+0x16e/0x1c4 class_device_add+0x194/0x3b8 attribute_container_add_class_device+0x26/0x50 transport_add_class_device+0x34/0x6c attribute_container_device_trigger+0x170/0x174 scsi_alloc_target+0x22c/0x360 __scsi_add_device+0x3a/0x148 scsi_add_device+0x2c/0x54 zfcp_erp_thread+0xb90/0x152c kernel_thread_starter+0x6/0xc Please apply. Thanks! Regards, Andreas zfcp: correctly set this_id for hosts Correctly set this_id for the host. Otherwise we provoke a race between scsi_target_reap_work and concurrent scsi_add_device.
