From 3e082a910d217b2e7b186077ebf5a1126a68c62f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Matthew Wilcox Date: Thu, 28 Sep 2006 15:19:20 -0600 Subject: [SCSI] Add ability to scan scsi busses asynchronously Since it often takes around 20-30 seconds to scan a scsi bus, it's highly advantageous to do this in parallel with other things. The bulk of this patch is ensuring that devices don't change numbering, and that all devices are discovered prior to trying to start init. For those who build SCSI as modules, there's a new scsi_wait_scan module that will ensure all bus scans are finished. This patch only handles drivers which call scsi_scan_host. Fibre Channel, SAS, SATA, USB and Firewire all need additional work.
