First of all, the mptsas, mpt2sas, and mpt3sas all share the same driver layout, so any issue happeing with this driver will most likely affect the others, too. Secondly the driver is event-based anyway, so we should be moving the initialisation to the already existing event handler: diff --git a/drivers/message/fusion/mptsas.c b/drivers/message/fusion/mptsas.c index 0707fa2..6f41e2c 100644 --- a/drivers/message/fusion/mptsas.c +++ b/drivers/message/fusion/mptsas.c @@ -5305,7 +5305,7 @@ mptsas_probe(struct pci_dev *pdev, const struct pci_device_id *id) /* older firmware doesn't support expander events */ if ((ioc->facts.HeaderVersion >> 8) < 0xE) ioc->old_sas_discovery_protocal = 1; - mptsas_scan_sas_topology(ioc); + mptsas_queue_rescan(ioc); mptsas_fw_event_on(ioc); return 0;
