Subject: [PATCH 0/3] cciss rmmod/scan-thread fixes
Date: Tue, 14 Jul 2009 16:02:40 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20090714220239.22282.44414.stgit@bob.kio> (raw)
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.
