Subject: Block: Trouble with kobject initialisation for blk_cmd_filter
Hi all,
current usage of the kobject in struct blk_cmd_filter is flawed. Doing
# modprobe -r sd-mod && modprobe sd-mod
while, for instance, a usb-stick is plugged in currently results in
nasty warnings and a dump_stack(). Since blk_cmd_filter is embedded in
struct request_queue, I don't see the need for a kobject anyway. What
about the much simpler option of a struct attribute_group in this
particular case?
This would imply that the cmd_filter subdirectory would appear under
sda/queue/ rather than sda/ (which is probably the right place) but,
alas, we have to keep compatibility in mind. So I've made some changes
to sysfs along the way in order to provide a legacy symlink. I'd have to
seperate these two changes for submission but I wanted to know your
opinion about it all first.
Thinking about it now makes me wonder whether this is too much for a rc
patch and whether we should just allocate the struct blk_cmd_filter
dynamically and have done with it. Anyway, tell me what you think.
Regards,
Elias
