2011-06-30	[SCSI] iscsi_ibft, be2iscsi, iscsi_boot: fix boot kobj data lifetime management	Mike Christie	1	-9/+19
	be2iscsi passes the boot functions its phba object which is allocated in the shost, but iscsi_ibft passes in a object allocated for each item to display. The problem is that iscsi_boot_sysfs was managing the lifetime of the object passed in and doing a kfree on release. This causes a double free for be2iscsi which frees the shost in its pci_remove. This patch fixes the problem by adding a release callback which the drivers can call kfree or a put() type of function (needed for be2iscsi which will do a get/put on the shost).

2011-06-30	[SCSI] iscsi_boot_sysfs: have this module check for null on destruction	Mike Christie	1	-0/+3
	This moves the check for NULL boot_sets to the iscsi_boot_sysfs module instead of having the drivers do it. Signed-off-by: Mike Christie <michaelc@cs.wisc.edu> Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <JBottomley@Parallels.com>
2010-08-06	[SCSI] iscsi boot: mv iscsi_boot_sysfs to drivers/scsi	Mike Christie	1	-0/+481
	iscsi_boot_sysfs does not depend on firmware. Any iscsi driver can use it. This patch moves iscsi_boot_sysfs to the scsi dir, so that it can be used on any arch with any driver.
