Subject: [PATCH] fix module_init functions of transport classes
Date: Tue, 11 Jan 2005 09:30:44 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20050111083044.GA3239@osiris.boeblingen.de.ibm.com> (raw)
Hi James,
thanks for explaining the object lifetimes rules in the SCSI stack to
me. Unfortunately I don't think I could exploit that to solve the zfcp
problem.
While looking at the FC transport class code I think there is a minor
bug if class_register fails in the module_init code. The
class_unregister call of the succeeded class_register call seems to be
missing. Patch below is untested.
Heiko
