Michael,
It has been suggested that the following sequence will work:
echo "scsi remove-single-device <h> <b> <t> <l>" > /proc/scsi/scsi
echo "scsi add-single-device <h> <b> <t> <l>" > /proc/scsi/scsi
where the host, bus, target, lun (parameters above respectively)
are obtained from "cat /proc/scsi/scsi". BTW you can see the state
of the online flag with "cat /proc/scsi/sg/devices" (last column).
My scsimon driver has an ioctl to turn it back on.
There is nothing stopping your HBA driver from setting the
online flag in the Scsi_device structure.
