So we'll end > up with device handler attributes and no device handler attached. we do not have to worry about if attach failed or succeeded. We will have "detached" if there is no device handler is attached to a device. Basically, existence of this file simply means that scsi_dh module is active, only the contents of this file will indicate if any device handler is attached or not. We are just creating the file dh_state for each SCSI device that exists and that is the only way non-in-built devices can be attached to a handler by the end-user. Do note that we do create this file for all the existing scsi devices when the scsi_dh module is inserted (see scsi_dh_init()). > > Not a good idea.
