There are situations when nodes vanish from the bus and come back quickly thereafter: - When certain bus-powered hubs are plugged in, - when certain devices are plugged into 6-port hubs, - when certain disk enclosures are switched from self-power to bus power or vice versa and break the daisy chain during the transition, - when the user plugs a cable out and quickly plugs it back in, e.g. to reorder a daisy chain (works on Mac OS X if done quickly enough), - when certain hubs temporarily malfunction during high bus traffic. Until now, firewire-core reported affected nodes as lost to the highlevel drivers (firewire-sbp2 and userspace drivers). We now delay the destruction of device representations until after at least two seconds after the last bus reset. If a "new" device is detected in this period whose bus information block and root directory header match that of a device which is pending for deletion, we resurrect that device and send update calls to highlevel drivers.
