[PATCH] scsi_dh_rdac: Add empty set_params function to scsi_dh_rdac

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

 



This patch adds empty set_params function to scsi_dh_rdac.

This patch is required for the following features to work properly.
1. add  retain_attached_hw_handler feature

http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git;a=commit;h=a58a935d5a1b2ad267017a68c3a1bca26226cc76

2. add scsi_dh_attached_handler_name

http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git;a=commit;h=7e8a74b177f17d100916b6ad415450f7c9508691


DM layer detaches the handler if the set_params is not implemented or fails.

For example if we pass following parameters from multipath:

	features "1 retain_attached_hw_handler" (consider rdac as attached_hw_handler)
	hardware_handler "2 alua 1"

If the attached_hw_handler is rdac, then DM anyway tries to call set_params on rdac. Because rdac does not 
implement set_params, scsi_dh_set_params fails and DM detaches the handler.

This patch fixes this problem.
