Subject[PATCH 0/3] drivers base: transport component error propagation
Date
Hi,

This small series improves error propagation on the transport component
to prevent an inconsistent state in the iscsi module. The bug that
motivated this patch results in a hanging iscsi connection that cannot
be used or removed by userspace, since the session is in an inconsistent
state.

That said, I tested it using the TCP iscsi transport (and forcing errors
on the triggered function), which doesn't require a particularly complex
container structure, so it is not the best test for finding corner cases
on the atomic attribute_container_device trigger version.

Please let me know what you think.

Gabriel Krisman Bertazi (3):
drivers: base: Support atomic version of
attribute_container_device_trigger
drivers: base: Propagate errors through the transport component
iscsi: Fail session and connection on transport registration failure
