[RFC PATCH 04/18] iscsi class: drop session lock in iscsi_session_chkready

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

 



The session lock in iscsi_session_chkready is not needed because when we
transition from logged into to another state we will blocked and/or
remove the devices under the session, so no new IO will be sent the
drivers after the block/remove. IO that races with the block/removal is
cleaned up by the drivers when it handles all outstanding IO, so this
just added an extra lock in the main IO path. This patch removes the
lock like other transport classes.
