How about the following patch?  Noet that vfree() handles a NULL argument,
so it's not necessary to check the pointer.

That patch is crap -- it only frees the memory on the error path, not
the normal exit.  Since I got confused by this function, it struck me
as not unreasonable that somebody else might also get confused by it
and split it into two parts.

I simplified some of the code.  The old code took the lock, scanned
through looking for a free slot, dropped the lock, allocated an sdp,
grabbed the lock and checked the slot was still free, branching back
if it had raced.  This rewrite assumes that we will find a slot and
allocates an sdp in advance.

Does anybody like this patch?  It survived booting on my test box which
only has one scsi device.  More testing welcomed.

Better than what was there, but I still don't like it.  A global array
of devices is just utter crap.  Every entry point from scsi already has
struct scsi_device from which we can derive the sg-specific portion easily,
and for anything else (from a quick look that seems to be only procfs
stuff which should fade out anyway) a linear search on a linked list
is okay.

btw, why are we vmalloc()ing Sg_device?

With Doug's latest version of the patch, and changing the vmalloc of
Sg_device to a kmalloc, I was able to get sg to attach to 16k devices.
(I'm still debugging major/minor issues, hopefully just userspace stuff.)

I was trying to get rid of the sg_dev_arr, but there is no connection from
a scsi_device to a Sg_device, there is only the pointer from Sg_device to
scsi_device. The sg simple class class_data is set but never used
(class_set_devdata is used but not class_get_devdata).

We have a scsi_device class_data that could store the Sg_device, that is a
bit of a hack, since it is supposed hold scsi core data, and in theory we
could have multiple scsi_device class interfaces (st and any other upper
level character drivers would not use this).

There is no cdev private_data, similiar to the block_device gendisk
private data, so we can't use that in sg_open. The other upper level char
devices (st) could also use this, as well as other char drivers. I am told
this is a 2.7 item.

Do you think we should do anything else (besides losing the one vmalloc)
here for sg in 2.6?

Specifically -

Do you think we should try for a cdev private_data? With only this added,
we could have a global list of all Sg_devices, and not have to do a linear
search on open (I don't know how bad that would be for large numbers of
devices). We would still need a linear search of the list on removal (not
that bad).

Should we hack the scsi_device class_data to hold a Sg_device?

Sorry, I missed this thread. The change looks good and survived
about one hour of scsi_debug bashing (on i386). I also checked
it against the previous version.

Attached is my version with only a superficial change to 2
printk()s plus:
   - bump version number
   - introduce MODULE_VERSION
   - increase over allocation of sg_dev_arr from 6 to 32
