Subject: [PATCH v2 2/3] ipmi: Fix __scan_channels() failing to rescan channels
Date: Tue, 30 Sep 2025 15:42:38 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250930074239.2353-3-guojinhui.liam@bytedance.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250930074239.2353-1-guojinhui.liam@bytedance.com>
channel_handler() sets intf->channels_ready to true but never
clears it, so __scan_channels() skips any rescan. When the BMC
firmware changes a rescan is required. Allow it by clearing
the flag before starting a new scan.
