Public bug reported: >From the patch series cover letter:
Now the libsas hotplug has some issues, Dan Williams report a similar bug here before https://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg39187.html The issues we have found 1. if LLDD burst reports lots of phy-up/phy-down sas events, some events may lost because a same sas events is pending now, finally libsas topo may different the hardware. 2. receive a phy down sas event, libsas call sas_deform_port to remove devices, it would first delete the sas port, then put a destruction discovery event in a new work, and queue it at the tail of workqueue, once the sas port be deleted, its children device will be deleted too, when the destruction work start, it will found the target device has been removed, and report a sysfs warnning. 3. since a hotplug process will be devided into several works, if a phy up sas event insert into phydown works, like destruction work ---> PORTE_BYTES_DMAED (sas_form_port) ---->PHYE_LOSS_OF_SIGNAL the hot remove flow would broken by PORTE_BYTES_DMAED event, it's not we expected, and issues would occur. There's also a small 3-patch series of fixes in libsas I plan to include as well: Jason Yan (2): scsi: libsas: fix memory leak in sas_smp_get_phy_events() scsi: libsas: fix error when getting phy events chenxiang (1): scsi: libsas: initialize sas_phy status according to response of DISCOVER ** Affects: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Medium Assignee: dann frazier (dannf) Status: In Progress -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1752146 Title: errors with sas hotplug To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1752146/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
