From b4cb2941f855993410ca456ef998888434e86098 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Geert Uytterhoeven Date: Sat, 19 Jan 2008 07:30:40 +1100 Subject: [PATCH] [POWERPC] PS3: Use the HVs storage device notification mechanism properly The PS3 hypervisor has a storage device notification mechanism to wait until a storage device is ready. Unfortunately the storage device probing code used this mechanism in an incorrect way, needing a polling loop and handling of devices that are not yet ready. This change corrects this by: - First waiting for the reception of an asynchronous notification that a new storage device became ready, - Then looking up the storage device in the device repository. On shutdown, the storage probe thread is stopped and the storage notification device is closed using a reboot notifier.
