Subject: [PATCH 6/6] scsi: Handle reprobe for existing devices during SCSI scan
Date: Fri, 24 Apr 2026 14:53:24 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260424215324.99045-7-brian@purestorage.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260424215324.99045-1-brian@purestorage.com>
Complement scsi_rescan_device() reprobe by handling the scan path.
Update INQUIRY data and reprobe existing devices when PQ or type changed.
