Take this path in /sys: /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:01.0/0000:01:00.0/host6/port-6:0/expander-6:0/port-6:0:0/end_device-6:0:0/target6:0:0/6:0:0:0/scsi_device/6:0:0:0 The problem is "port-6:0:0" in the hierarchy: since mpt3sas explicitly calls sas_port_delete() before scsi_remove_host(), that node is removed from the device hierarchy and seems to orphan what lies beneath it: [ 955.119328] kobject: '6:0:0:0' (ffff88074e2e1008): kobject_uevent_env [ 955.133890] kobject: '6:0:0:0' (ffff88074e2e1008): fill_kobj_path: path = '/end_device-6:0:0/target6:0:0/6:0:0:0/bsg/6:0:0:0' As the above from CONFIG_DEBUG_KOBJECT suggests, "end_device-6:0:0" no longer has a parent. The path to the enclosured device is: /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:01.0/0000:01:00.0/host6/port-6:0/expander-6:0/port-6:0:15/end_device-6:0:15/target6:0:15/6:0:15:0/enclosure/6:0:15:0/ArrayDevice09 Enclosure wants to re-add the device outside the enclosure: https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/drivers/misc/enclosure.c#n404 We melt when trying to re-add "ArrayDevice09" to the "6:0:15:0" directory above the "enclosure" directory best I can tell. This is *incredibly* confusing because kobj_add_internal() actually clobbers the parent pointer if it's NULL: https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/lib/kobject.c#n216 So even though it appears that the parent was "6:0:15:0" here, it was actually NULL when passed into kobj_add_internal(). Thus, we try to do the add with the kset as our parent, and we get -ENOENT because that node has been marked as inactive in kernfs as per here: https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/fs/kernfs/dir.c#n743 Why is it inactive? I think, because __kernfs_remove() deleted an ancestor: https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/fs/kernfs/dir.c#n1243 ...which brings us full circle. > Doesn't this need to be taken care in enclosure_removal? Even with enclosure compiled out, I still get a WARN like the following for every block device being removed at rmmod (-dirty here is just from me applying a fix to SES I sent to the list a few days ago): [ 224.057286] ------------[ cut here ]------------ [ 224.067696] WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 5412 at fs/sysfs/group.c:237 sysfs_remove_group+0x10f/0x150 [ 224.088007] sysfs group ffffffff83109ba0 not found for kobject 'sdc' [ 224.102283] Modules linked in: mpt3sas(-) [ 224.200483] CPU: 0 PID: 5412 Comm: rmmod Not tainted 4.6.0-dirty #4 [ 224.219797] Hardware name: Wiwynn HoneyBadger/PantherPlus, BIOS HBM6.71 02/03/2016 [ 224.237001] ffffffff82af6280 ffff8806e826f8b0 ffffffff81e13e54 ffff8806e826f928 [ 224.253811] 0000000000000000 ffff8806e826f8f8 ffffffff81127822 ffffffff831a5968 [ 224.270647] ffff8806000000ed ffffed00dd04df21 0000000000000000 ffff880754ae3078 [ 224.287462] Call Trace: [ 224.292953] [] dump_stack+0x68/0x94 [ 224.304433] [] __warn+0x172/0x1b0 [ 224.315514] [] warn_slowpath_fmt+0x97/0xb0 [ 224.351845] [] sysfs_remove_group+0x10f/0x150 [ 224.365252] [] blk_trace_remove_sysfs+0x14/0x20 [ 224.379021] [] blk_unregister_queue+0xcf/0x120 [ 224.392589] [] del_gendisk+0x26e/0x600 [ 224.432345] [] sd_remove+0xf5/0x1b0 [ 224.443808] [] __device_release_driver+0x160/0x3a0 [ 224.458151] [] device_release_driver+0x25/0x40 [ 224.471734] [] bus_remove_device+0x2e1/0x4b0 [ 224.484926] [] device_del+0x37d/0x680 [ 224.555423] [] __scsi_remove_device+0x1e5/0x250 [ 224.569196] [] scsi_forget_host+0x12c/0x1e0 [ 224.582197] [] scsi_remove_host+0x10c/0x300 [ 224.595227] [] scsih_remove+0x339/0x670 [mpt3sas] [ 224.609383] [] pci_device_remove+0x70/0x110 [ 224.622379] [] __device_release_driver+0x160/0x3a0 [ 224.636724] [] driver_detach+0x183/0x200 [ 224.649166] [] bus_remove_driver+0xdf/0x200 [ 224.662185] [] driver_unregister+0x67/0xa0 [ 224.675009] [] pci_unregister_driver+0x1e/0xe0 [ 224.688613] [] _mpt3sas_exit+0x23/0x5e9 [mpt3sas] [ 224.702782] [] SyS_delete_module+0x2eb/0x390 [ 224.743359] [] entry_SYSCALL_64_fastpath+0x18/0xa8 [ 224.759036] ---[ end trace 13f1919bf2ec7bb0 ]--- My patch fixes that too :) The only driver besides mpt*sas that calls sas_delete_port() explicitly is HPSA, and it does it in the opposite order mpt3sas does: scsi_remove_host() first.
