This will be a nice feature to have, but I wonder about the proper behavior. I had thought about having a 'drain' state, where we wouldn't start new commands and would let existing ones complete or timeout before killing the connection. That may be in addition to a 'kill it now' variant. Though perhaps my gentler delete is best done by having a user script walk all of the devices under the host and set them to offline, wait for scsi_host/hostX/host_busy to drop to zero, then hit the SRP delete attr. -- Dave Dillow National Center for Computational Science Oak Ridge National Laboratory (865) 241-6602 office -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-rdma" in the body of a message to [email protected] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
