| |
Several people are reporting long delays when shutting down and using usb-storage. My guess is that the control thread is getting killed during the shutdown process, and when the SCSI layer decides to send a final command to the device, it's never completed because the thread is dead.
So, how do I make a kernel thread immune from being killed during a shutdown?
