 LIP ?

Loop Initialization Primitive, required to discover new targets on fibre channel HBAs. Causing one to be issued is disruptive to IO on the host, so this patch does not do that. It does mean that there is no way through libvirt to discover new targets that have been zoned to the host subsequent to boot.

  Is that really better than suggesting the operation is not supported ?

These two functions are, of course, not required for this patch. They're there because I had started to implement NPIV support and then thought I should submit this patch before the NPIV patch. I can take them out if you'd like and add them to the subsequent patch where they will have contents.

  Seems to me that goto should be suppressed, it just generate a leak of path
On the other hand fd is leaked for sure ... This really need some
double-checking ;-)

Ugh, sorry about that.  Fixed, thanks.

+cleanup:
+    VIR_FREE(path);

+out:
+    VIR_DEBUG(_("Rescan of host %d complete"), host);

  Otherwise, sounds fine, as long as this doesn't generate a bus reset.

It doesn't generate a bus reset. As I mentioned above, this code is not IO disruptive. I haven't decided on what I think is the right way to do scans that are IO disruptive.

I've attached a patch with a fix for the leaks. It also adds \n to the scan string.
