Hmm, continuing to do it there may cause a bit of confusion if vendor_id is set before the backstore is enabled, which would cause it to be overwritten. That said, we already have similarly strange behaviour for emulate_model_alias / product. E.g.: rapido1:/# cd /sys/kernel/config/target/ rapido1:target# mkdir -p core/fileio_1/testing rapido1:target# echo -n "fd_dev_name=/asdf,fd_dev_size=4096" > core/fileio_1/testing/control rapido1:target# echo -n "testing1" > core/fileio_1/testing/wwn/vendor_id rapido1:target# cat core/fileio_1/testing/wwn/vendor_id testing1 rapido1:target# echo 1 > ./core/fileio_1/testing/attrib/emulate_model_alias rapido1:target# cat ./core/fileio_1/testing/statistics/scsi_lu/prod testing rapido1:target# echo 1 > core/fileio_1/testing/enable rapido1:target# cat core/fileio_1/testing/wwn/vendor_id LIO-ORG rapido1:target# cat ./core/fileio_1/testing/statistics/scsi_lu/prod FILEIO rapido1:target# cat ./core/fileio_1/testing/attrib/emulate_model_alias 1 Not sure how best to handle this... 1. move vendor/model/rev initialization into target_alloc_device() 2. move vendor (only) initialization into target_alloc_device() 3. fail attempts to set emulate_model_alias or vendor_id before the backstore has been enabled 4. leave as-is (1) would IMO be the most straightforward, but it's a slight change to the existing (IMO broken) emulate_model_alias user interface. Cheers, David
