Subject: [PATCH 2/8] scsi: scsi_dh_alua: Do not attach for SCSI native multipath
Date: Tue, 10 Mar 2026 11:49:19 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260310114925.1222263-3-john.g.garry@oracle.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260310114925.1222263-1-john.g.garry@oracle.com>

For native SCSI multipath, we don't want device handlers involved, so do
not attach in this instance.

For now, SCSI multipath will not maintain sdev->access_state.
