ata_scsi_hotplug(9)
π NAME π
ata_scsi_hotplug β SCSI part of hotplug.
okay so bestie, this is the ata_scsi_hotplug(9) page from the Kernel API Manual π
it's giving kernel-internals main character energy, and we're gonna get into it. π¦
β¨ SYNOPSIS β¨
void ata_scsi_hotplug (struct work_struct *work );
π«Ά ARGUMENTS π«Ά
workβ Pointer to ATA port to perform SCSI hotplug on. Like, that's the ATA port we're doing the SCSI hotplug for, bestie. π
π DESCRIPTION π
Listen: this function performs the SCSI part of hotplug. It's executed from a separate workqueue after EH completes. This is necessary because SCSI hot plugging requires working EH and hot unplugging is synchronized with hot plugging with a mutex. No cap, that's the whole reason β it's not just out here doing side quests for fun. β¨
LOCKING: Kernel thread context (may sleep). So yes, it can sleep β it's not one of those "do not block, ever" situations. π΄
