Sorry, but that's really stupid. If people have the arrays that have device handlers there are two possible cases: - just a single port configured on the array. In this case the device handlers are useless but also completely unharmful. - multiple ports configured on the array. In this case we desperately want the device handlers loaded early so that we do the right thing for the inactive ports and avoid the horrible probing delays, not matter if we actually do end up using multipath later or no. No need to make this configurable. If people really do not want the handler (e.g. becuase the may end up beeing buggy for a new array matching the old idea) they can just blacklist it in the modules configuration. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-scsi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
