Randomly picking on one, megaraid.c registers this function: .eh_abort_handler = megaraid_abort, megaraid_abort returns the return code from megaraid_abort_and_reset, which returns TRUE or FALSE, not SUCCESS and FAILED. Printing the return value helps expose such problems (if the code path is exercised). --- Rob Elliott HP Server Storage -- 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
