[dm-devel] re: dm-multipath: kernel paniced when I pull out one HBA card

Hi,all

>looks like a failure in sysfs support code in the scsi module.  might be worth posting to the LKML.
But after I use dmsetup to remove the dm device, and "rmmod" the kernel module "dm_round_robin" and "dm_multipath"，
the kernel works fine as I pull out one HBA card for about 1 minutes and plug in it again. the messages are:

In summary:
kernel with module dm_multipath loaded:
	When I plug in the HBA card, the kernel finds a new device named "/dev/sdc" which is "/dev/sdb" orginally,
	and then kernel painc.

kernel without module dm_multipath loaded:
	When I plug in the HBA card, the kernel finds a new device named as the old one "/dev/sdb",
	and all works fine.

What's the matter?  where would be the bug ?

Best regards!
