Hi All,
I didn't follow the thread and progress of the parallel device scan at FC LLD driver module loading time in the list. I would like to understand the expected behavior of the parallel scan and insmod/modprobe. I have a configuration where I have 4 LSI FC ports. When I insmod the mptfc driver, the insmod process returned very quickly. After the insmod is finished, only a few scsi-devices are discovered. The 4 scan-work-queue threads keep running to discover the rest of the devices. I thought the behavior should be 1. the module init function kicks off the work-threads to do the discovery. 2. the module init waits all the work-thread completing the device scan 3. the module init function returns If the module init returns before work-threads complete device scanning, does it cause problem in high level of the io stack?
