[PATCH] scsi: netlink: avoid including netlink interface in scsi module

[Jan Engelhardt]

Only scsi_transport_fc needs it, so don't include it in scsi_mod
if fc=m.

BTW, scsi_transport_iscsi.c also makes netlink calls (but it's missing the
needed header files).

and what about pmcraid.c ?

Many variations of SCSI=y/m, SCSI_NETLINK=y/m/n, PMCRAID=y/m/n,
SCSI_FC_ATTRS=y/m/n, SCSI_ISCSI_ATTRS=y/m/n build successfully for me.
(no run-time testing)

What, where?

>and what about pmcraid.c ?

I have both enabled, and the patch does not make any new warnings w.r.t. 
missing prototypes or otherwise pop up. So there does not seem to be 
anything missing.

I had hoped git send-email would scan through the commit message, 
and add Ccs, apparently it did not.

iscsi uses netlink directly. It does not use scsi_netlink helpers/lib 
code yet.

Ah indeed, thank you. I must have missed that somehow. Maybe I should get a
slower CPU so that I actually have time to read messages (make -j8 kinda rushes
just through, despite kbuild-2.6's efforts to reduce 2.4-ish verbosity :)


Updated: As this is now a separate module, I took the courtesy to
err out completely if scsi_nl_add_transport fails.

Mostly looks good to me, just one warning:

drivers/scsi/scsi_netlink.c:678: warning: initialization from incompatible pointer type

The init() function should return an int (status/error code).

[patch] scsi: netlink: avoid including netlink interface in scsi module

scsi: netlink: avoid including netlink interface in scsi module

Only scsi_transport_fc needs it, so don't include it in scsi_mod
if fc=m.
