Could you please check if this depends on any changes to the async probing mechanism? IOW, can it be backported? If so, which version would be the earliest one? Other than that: Reviewed-by: Hannes Reinecke <hare@suse.com> Cheers, Hannes

Hi Hannes, Patches one and two depend on driver core changes. I was assuming that these were already upstream but apparently that is not yet the case :-( See also "Re: [driver-core PATCH v9 1/9] driver core: Establish order of operations for device_add and device_del via bitflag" https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/0a72b8db91f9151ecc7f215b465ec8e69adc239c.camel@linux.intel.com/ Bart.

I will do that. Without the driver core changes patches 1/8 and 2/8 make LUN scanning slower instead of faster. Maybe I should leave out the first two patches and repost these after Greg has accepted the driver core changes these patches rely on. Bart.

And fter the driver core patches have been accepted please resubmit your first two patches referencing the commit ID(s) of the driver core patches. That will make tracking easier for us poor distro people. Cheers, Hannes

As explained during the LSF/MM session about increasing SCSI disk probing concurrency, the problems with the current probing approach are as follows: - The driver core is unaware of asynchronous SCSI LUN probing. wait_for_device_probe() waits for all asynchronous probes except asynchronous SCSI disk probes. - There is unnecessary serialization between sd_probe() and sd_remove(). This can lead to a deadlock. Hence this patch that modifies the sd driver such that it uses the driver core framework for asynchronous probing. The async domains and get_device()/put_device() pairs that became superfluous due to this change are removed. This patch reduces the time needed for loading the scsi_debug kernel module with parameters delay=0 and max_luns=256 from 0.7s to 0.1s. In other words, this specific test runs about seven times faster. See also commit 3c31b52f96f7 ("scsi: async sd resume").
