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. .../ABI/testing/sysfs-bus-pci-devices-cciss | 7 + drivers/block/cciss.c | 198 ++++++++++++++++++-- drivers/block/cciss.h | 7 + 3 files changed, 188 insertions(+), 24 deletions(-) Andrew Patterson (3): cciss: remove logical drive sysfs entries during driver cleanup. cciss: use only one scan thread cciss: kick off logical drive topology rescan through sysfs -- Andrew Patterson
