[PATCH V5 09/10] aacraid: Fix character device re-initialization

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

 



From: Raghava Aditya Renukunta <raghavaaditya.renukunta@xxxxxxxx>

During EEH PCI hotplug activity kernel unloads and loads the driver,
causing character device to be unregistered(aac_remove_one).When the
driver is loaded back using aac_probe_one the character device needs
to be registered again for the AIF management tools to work.

Fixed by adding code to register character device in aac_probe_one if
it is unregistered in aac_remove_one.

Changes in V2:
Added macros to track character device state

Changes in V3:
None

Changes in V4:
None

Changes in V5:
None
