Re: [RFC PATCH] OSD and kRBD request expiry (was Re: iSCSI active/active stale io guard)

While I cannot speak for the upstream kernel maintainers, in the past
they have rejected the RBD module for LIO and you might have similar
issues wiring timestamp changes into tcp_recvmsg. Plus, in a large
deployment where you have lots of initiators connecting to lots of
targets, I really wonder what benefit you will receive from
active/active versus just level-loading the targets and not having to
deal w/ the added racy complexities.
