The updated patch set provides a way for drivers ( specifically storvsc in this case ) that expose virturalized fc devices but that do not expose rports to be manually scanned. This is done via creating a pseudo rport in storvsc and a corresponding dummy initiator rport role in the fc transport.
Changes since v2: - Additional patch adding FC_PORT_ROLE_FCP_DUMMY_INITIATOR role to fc_transport - Changed storvsc rport role to FC_PORT_ROLE_FCP_DUMMY_INITIATOR Changes since v1: - Fix fc_rport_identifiers init [Stephen Hemminger] - Better error checking Cathy Avery (2): scsi: scsi_transport_fc: Add dummy initiator role to rport scsi: storvsc: Add support for FC rport. drivers/scsi/scsi_transport_fc.c | 10 ++++++---- drivers/scsi/storvsc_drv.c | 23 ++++++++++++++++++----- include/scsi/scsi_transport_fc.h | 1 + 3 files changed, 25 insertions(+), 9 deletions(-) -- 2.5.0 _______________________________________________ devel mailing list de...@linuxdriverproject.org http://driverdev.linuxdriverproject.org/mailman/listinfo/driverdev-devel
