Subject: [PATCH v2 16/18] scsi: sd: add mpath_dev file
Date: Tue, 28 Apr 2026 11:14:45 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260428111447.1779062-17-john.g.garry@oracle.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260428111447.1779062-1-john.g.garry@oracle.com>
Since per-path gendisk is hidden, we have no /dev/ file.
Add a mpath_dev file so that the multipath disk can be looked up from
per-path gendisk directory.
The following is an example of this usage:
$ ls -l /dev/sdc
brw-rw---- 1 root disk 8, 32 Feb 24 16:08 /dev/sdc
$ cat /sys/class/scsi_mpath_disk/scsi_mpath_disk0/sdc/multipath/sdc:0/mpath_dev
8:32
This can be used by a util like lsscsi, which would find that the gendisk
for the per-path scsi_device is missing.
