[PATCH] sas_scsi_host: Convert to use the kthread API

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Eric W. Biederman <[email protected]>

This patch modifies the sas scsi host thread startup
to use kthread_run not kernel_thread and deamonize.
kthread_run is slightly simpler and more maintainable.
