[openib-general] looping with class_device_attr store

[Suresh Shelvapille]

Hi:

I created a class attr called portstate to toggle the port state values
(INIT/ARM etc...), as follows:

static CLASS_DEVICE_ATTR(portstate, S_IRUGO|S_IWUSR, show_stats,
store_portstate);

this results in a file under sys/class/Infiniband/mysw/. 

When I write to the file from linux shell as, echo "1" > portstate, my store
function callback gets called forever....

Any ideas...

Thanks a lot in advance!
