Right, I understand that. I thought that after you
xenbus_printf(XBT_NIL, info->dev->nodename, state,
"%d", XenbusStateClosed);
in scsiback_do_add_lun() you'd eventually
xenbus_switch_state(dev, XenbusStateConnected);
in scsiback_frontend_changed().
What I didn't realize was that this switch would only happen if
dev->state is not XenbusStateConnected, which it still will be, even
after xenbus_printf(XenbusStateClosed).
So
