Hi nab, hch, and all, This patchset reduces the amount of memory for se_dev_entry and se_lun arrays by waiting to allocate array members, and includes some related simplification patches too. This is a rework of a few patches I submitted in December in a larger series, but keeping it simple by sticking with fixed-size arrays for device_list and tpg_lun_list for now. Testing: created and removed luns and mapped luns, worked ok. Changes in resend: Rebase to latest target-pending/for-next Changes in v2: Added patches 1-2, which ensure locking around the arrays Added patch 9, refactors enable_device_list_for_node Patch 7/6 folded into series Andy Grover (9): target: Add locking to some accesses to nacl.device_list target: Don't unlock/relock tpg_lun_lock in loop in add_node_to_devs target: Allocate se_dev_entrys in device list only when used target: core_tpg_post_dellun can return void target: Change core_dev_del_lun to take a se_lun instead of unpacked_lun target: Rename core_tpg_post_dellun to remove_lun target: Allocate se_luns only when used target: Remove core_tpg_release_virtual_lun0 function target: Refactor core_enable_device_list_for_node drivers/target/sbp/sbp_target.c | 6 +- drivers/target/target_core_device.c | 311 +++++++++++++-------------- drivers/target/target_core_fabric_configfs.c | 35 +-- drivers/target/target_core_internal.h | 9 +- drivers/target/target_core_pr.c | 40 +++- drivers/target/target_core_spc.c | 2 +- drivers/target/target_core_tpg.c | 189 ++++------------ drivers/target/target_core_ua.c | 3 + include/target/target_core_base.h | 17 +- 9 files changed, 246 insertions(+), 366 deletions(-) -- 1.8.5.3 -- 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
