NAME

release - release all resources associated with given host  

SYNOPSIS

int release (struct Scsi_Host * shp);  

ARGUMENTS

shp
host to be released.
 

DESCRIPTION

Return value ignored (could soon be a function returning void).  

REQUIRED

yes (see notes)  

LOCKS

none held  

NOTES

Invoked from mid level's scsi_unregister_host. LLD's implementation of this function should call scsi_unregister(shp) prior to returning. If not supplied mid-level [in hosts.c] supplies its own implementation (see scsi_host_legacy_release) which is for old ISA adapters so it is best not to use it.
