Subject: [REPOST PATCH] scsi: ses: don't ask for diagnostic pages repeatedly during probe
Date: Tue, 14 Nov 2017 10:48:04 +1100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20171113234804.4675-1-dongyang.li@anu.edu.au> (raw)

We are testing if there is a match with the ses device in a loop
by calling ses_match_to_enclosure(), which will issue scsi receive
diagnostics commands to the ses device for every device on the
same host.
On one of our boxes with 840 disks, it takes a long time to load
the driver:

[root@g1b-oss06 ~]# time modprobe ses

real	40m48.247s
user	0m0.001s
sys	0m0.196s

With the patch:

[root@g1b-oss06 ~]# time modprobe ses

real	0m17.915s
user	0m0.008s
sys	0m0.053s

Note that we still need to refresh page 10 when we see a new disk
to create the link.
