# scsi\_target\_reap\_ref\_release(9)

remove target from visibility

## NAME

scsi\_target\_reap\_ref\_release - remove target from visibility

## SYNOPSIS

**void scsi\_target\_reap\_ref\_release(struct kref \*** *kref***);**

## ARGUMENTS

*kref*

the reap\_ref in the target being released

## DESCRIPTION

Called on last put of reap\_ref, which is the indication that no device under this target is visible anymore, so render the target invisible in sysfs. Note: we have to be in user context here because the target reaps should be done in places where the scsi device visibility is being removed.
