Subject: [PATCH] megaraid_sas: fix physical disk handling
Date: Mon, 6 Feb 2006 15:05:19 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20060206140519.GA2515@lst.de> (raw)
Chandra_Nelogal noticed that megaraid_sas currently exports all physical
disks normally to the disk layer, which is obviously quite bad.
The problems is that megaraid_sas is doing inquiry sniffing, and since
2.6.15 inquiry commands are sent down as one-element scatterlists on
which the code in the driver doesn't work anymore. The right place to
keep the scsi midlayer from attaching to a device is the slave_alloc
method in the host template. To completely prevent attaching the method
needs to return -ENXIO, but the patch below sets the no_uld_attach flag
instead which prevents upper level drivers from attaching while still
allowing scsi generic access to it, as in other raid HBA drivers.
