Question about scsi_qla_host_t.fcports list protection (qla2xxx)

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

 



Hello

Looking at the qla2xxx driver source code I noticed that scsi_qla_host_t.fcports is used without any protection. For instance, qla2x00_loop_reset() walks over this list. This function is called from qla2xxx_eh_bus_reset(), which could be called at any time. What does protect fcports from being changed, eg, by some async loop event during the walking and eventually oops'ing? Do I miss something? There are many such unprotected fcports list usages in the driver.
