Hi Nic, below is my idea how to kill ->shutdown_session. It also happens to remove the need for sess_kref and simplify a few more things. Note that qla2xxx won't compile with this series - it has some very creative abuse of sess_kfree. Quinn, can you take a look at the sess_kfree usage in qla2xxx? It uses it with it's own release function passed to kref_put, which I can't see how it's supposed to work. Maybe it should be using a kref in it's private session structure instead? -- 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
