.SH NAME
release \- release all resources associated with given host
.SH SYNOPSIS
.sp
\fB
.sp
int release  (struct Scsi_Host * \fIshp\fB);
\fR
.SH "ARGUMENTS"
.TP
\fB\fIshp\fB\fR
host to be released.
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
Return value ignored (could soon be a function returning void).
.SH "REQUIRED"
.PP
yes (see notes)
.SH "LOCKS"
.PP
none held
.SH "NOTES"
.PP
Invoked from mid level's \fBscsi_unregister_host\fR.
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 \fBscsi_host_legacy_release\fR) which is for old
ISA adapters so it is best not to use it.
