Aaahh, now I get what's happening (with some kicks^Whelp from Hannes I admit). The sas_unregister_dev() comes from the work queued by notify_phy_event(). So this patch must be replaced by (untested): diff --git a/drivers/scsi/scsi_transport_sas.c b/drivers/scsi/scsi_transport_sas.c index cdbb293..e1e6492 100644 --- a/drivers/scsi/scsi_transport_sas.c +++ b/drivers/scsi/scsi_transport_sas.c @@ -375,6 +375,7 @@ void sas_remove_children(struct device *dev) */ void sas_remove_host(struct Scsi_Host *shost) { + scsi_flush_work(shost); sas_remove_children(&shost->shost_gendev); } EXPORT_SYMBOL(sas_remove_host); John, mind giving that one a shot in your test setup as well?
