[PATCH 0/3] cciss rmmod/scan-thread fixes

From: Andrew Patterson
Date: Tue Jul 14 2009 - 18:02:49 EST


The following series fixes several problems causing hangs while
rmmoding the cciss driver. In the process of fixing these hangs, I
also reworked the the logical drive scanning kernel thread to use one
thread per driver rather than one thread per controller. I also added
a sysfs attribute to kick off a controller scan.
