Adding a second kref to se_node_acl still seems rather pointless to me. We've already got se_node_acl->acl_kref, and se_node_acl->acl_group configfs shutdown in core_tpg_del_initiator_node_acl() that uses a struct completion to wait until all kref_put() references have dropped.. Why do we need to add a second one for something special about ib_srpt..? > In the test I ran demo mode was disabled. Yes, because ib_srpt has never supported demo_mode.

That's exactly what srpt_lookup_acl() does today. > ... In any event, I've gone ahead and dropped the legacy port_acl_lock + port_acl_list internal lookup non-sense. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe target-devel" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
