[SCSI] ch: fix device minor number management bug
ch_probe uses the total number of ch devices as minor. ch_probe: ch->minor = ch_devcount; ... ch_devcount++; Then ch_remove decreases ch_devcount: ch_remove: ch_devcount--; If you have two ch devices, sch0 and sch1, and remove sch0, ch_devcount is 1. Then if you add another ch device, ch_probe tries to create sch1. So you get a warning and fail to create sch1: Jan 24 16:01:05 nice kernel: sysfs: duplicate filename 'sch1' can not be created Jan 24 16:01:05 nice kernel: WARNING: at fs/sysfs/dir.c:424 sysfs_add_one() Jan 24 16:01:05 nice kernel: Pid: 2571, comm: iscsid Not tainted 2.6.24-rc7-ga3d2c2e8-dirty #1 Jan 24 16:01:05 nice kernel: Jan 24 16:01:05 nice kernel: Call Trace: Jan 24 16:01:05 nice kernel: [<ffffffff802a22b8>] sysfs_add_one+0x54/0xbd Jan 24 16:01:05 nice kernel: [<ffffffff802a283c>] create_dir+0x4f/0x87 Jan 24 16:01:05 nice kernel: [<ffffffff802a28a9>] sysfs_create_dir+0x35/0x4a Jan 24 16:01:05 nice kernel: [<ffffffff803069a1>] kobject_get+0x12/0x17 Jan 24 16:01:05 nice kernel: [<ffffffff80306ece>] kobject_add+0xf3/0x1a6 Jan 24 16:01:05 nice kernel: [<ffffffff8034252b>] class_device_add+0xaa/0x39d Jan 24 16:01:05 nice kernel: [<ffffffff803428fb>] class_device_create+0xcb/0xfa Jan 24 16:01:05 nice kernel: [<ffffffff80229e09>] printk+0x4e/0x56 Jan 24 16:01:05 nice kernel: [<ffffffff802a2054>] sysfs_ilookup_test+0x0/0xf Jan 24 16:01:05 nice kernel: [<ffffffff88022580>] :ch:ch_probe+0xbe/0x61a (snip) This patch converts ch to use a standard minor number management way, idr like sg and bsg.
