Removing an ATA device via sysfs means that the device may not be found
through re-scanning:
root@ubuntu:/home/john# lsscsi
[0:0:0:0] disk SanDisk LT0200MO P404 /dev/sda
[0:0:1:0] disk ATA HGST HUS724040AL A8B0 /dev/sdb
[0:0:8:0] enclosu 12G SAS Expander RevB -
root@ubuntu:/home/john# echo 1 > /sys/block/sdb/device/delete
root@ubuntu:/home/john# echo "- - -" > /sys/class/scsi_host/host0/scan
root@ubuntu:/home/john# lsscsi
[0:0:0:0] disk SanDisk LT0200MO P404 /dev/sda
[0:0:8:0] enclosu 12G SAS Expander RevB -
root@ubuntu:/home/john#
The problem is that the rescan of the device may conflict with the device
in being re-initialized, as follows:
- In the rescan we call hisi_sas_slave_alloc() in store_scan() ->
sas_user_scan() -> [__]scsi_scan_target() -> scsi_probe_and_add_lunc()
-> scsi_alloc_sdev() -> hisi_sas_slave_alloc() -> hisi_sas_init_device()
In hisi_sas_init_device() we issue an IT nexus reset for ATA devices
- That IT nexus causes the remote PHY to go down and this triggers a bcast
event
- In parallel libsas processes the bcast event, finds that the phy is down
and marks the device as gone
The hard reset issued in hisi_sas_init_device() is unncessary - as
described in the code comment - so remove it. Also set dev status as
HISI_SAS_DEV_NORMAL as the hisi_sas_init_device() call.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
