Subject: [PATCH 0/2] ibmvscsi: dynamic request_limit and device restart
Date: Fri, 09 Feb 2007 11:49:49 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20070209174949.5080.69663.sendpatchset@toy> (raw)
There are two fixes for the ibmvscsi client driver in this set.
- Dynamic request_limit
The request_limit for the driver was not properly reflecting the value on
the server side and could cause can_queue to be set to improper values (-1).
The patch corrects this so that request_limit mirrors the value
on the server and sets can_queue appropriately.
- Device restart
When a drive was removed from the server and then re-added the client
would not be able to use that device. The device would return a unit
attention and then not ready. By adding a slave_configure function we
can set the "allow_restart" flag for all disk devices. Now devices will
resume functioning when they are re-added to the server.
