[PATCH v2 1/3] scsi: add ability to adjust module reference for scsi host

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

 



While accessing a scsi_device, the use count of the underlying LLDD module
is incremented.  The module reference is retrieved through .module field of
struct scsi_host_template.

This mapping between scsi_device and underlying LLDD module works well
except some scsi drivers (ufs and unusual usb storage drivers).  These
drivers consist with core driver and actual LLDDs, and scsi_host_template
is defined in the core driver.  So the actual LLDDs can be unloaded even if
the scsi_device is being accessed.

This adds .module field in struct Scsi_Host and let the module reference
be retrieved though it instead of struct scsi_host_template.  This allows
the actual LLDDs adjust module reference.
