Linux-2.6平台下SCSI子系统之添加适配器到系统

SCSI低层驱动是面向主机适配器的,低层驱动被加载时,首先要添加主机适配器。主机适配器可以在PCI子系统完成ID匹配时添加,或者通过手动添加。所有基于硬件PCI接口的主机适配器都采用前一种方式,而UNH iSCSI启动器采用的是后一种方式。

添加主机适配器包括两部分内容:为主机适配器分配数据结构,将主机适配器添加到系统。

SCSI中间层为此提供了两个公共函数:scsi_host_alloc和scsi_add_host

/**
 * scsi_host_alloc - register a scsi host adapter instance.
 * @sht: pointer to scsi host template
 * @privsize: extra bytes to allocate for driver
 *
 * Note:
 *  Allocate a new Scsi_Host and perform basic initialization.
 *  The host is not published to the scsi midlayer until scsi_add_host
 *  is called.
 *
 * Return value:
 *  Pointer to a new Scsi_Host
 **/
