    [SCSI] iscsi class: export pid of process that created · 0c70d84b
    Mike Christie 提交于
    There could be multiple userspace entities creating/destroying/
    recoverying sessions and also the kernel's iscsi drivers could
    be doing this too. If the userspace apps do try to manage the kernel
    ones it can get the driver/fw out of sync and cause the user to
    loose the root disk, oopses or ping ponging becasue userspace
    wants to do one thing but the kernel manager thought we
    are trying to do another.
    
    This patch fixes the problem by just exporting the pid of
    the entity that created the session. Userspace programs like
    iscsid, iscsiadm, iscsistart, qlogic's tools, etc, can then
    figure out which sessions they own and only manage them.
