I really don't understand the need for reference counting on the storage side, especially now that you only have a SCSI driver. The SCSI midlayer does proper counting on it's objects (Scsi_Host, scsi_device, scsi_cmnd), so you'll get that for free given that SCSI drivers just piggyback on the midlayer lifetime rules. For now your patches should probably go in as-is, but mid-term you should be able to completely remove that code on the storage side. _______________________________________________ Virtualization mailing list Virtualization@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.linux-foundation.org/mailman/listinfo/virtualization
