[ Upstream commit 9c0a50022b ]
We are testing if there is a match with the ses device in a loop by
calling ses_match_to_enclosure(), which will issue scsi receive
diagnostics commands to the ses device for every device on the same
host. On one of our boxes with 840 disks, it takes a long time to load
the driver:
[root@g1b-oss06 ~]# time modprobe ses
real 40m48.247s
user 0m0.001s
sys 0m0.196s
With the patch:
[root@g1b-oss06 ~]# time modprobe ses
real 0m17.915s
user 0m0.008s
sys 0m0.053s
Note that we still need to refresh page 10 when we see a new disk to
create the link.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
