We only have have two callers anyway. So I'd much rather only keep the code inside the if above in the new nvme_rdma_destroy_admin_queue that is only called at shutdown time, and opencode the calls to nvme_rdma_stop_queue, nvme_rdma_free_qe and nvme_rdma_free_queue in the callers.
Any chance you can make the organization like what I did with FC and avoid all the "new" and "remove" flags ? e.g. code blocks for: - allocation/initialization for the controller and the tag sets. Basically initial allocation/creation of everything that would be the os-facing side of the controller. - an association (or call it a session) create. Basically everything that makes the link-side ties to the subsystem and creates the controller and its connections. Does admin queue creation, controller init, and io queue creation, and enablement of the blk-mq queues as it does so. - an association teardown. Basically everything that stops the blk-mq queues and tears down the link-side ties to the controller. - a final controller teardown, which removes it from the system. Everything that terminates the os-facing side of the controller. -- james
