[PATCH] multipath: recheck all priorities when a path comes back up

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



For group_by_prio paths, when a path goes down, its possible that the
priorities of the paths will be readjusted, and the multipath device will be
reloaded with a different path layout. However, downed paths don't get their
priority checked, so when the path comes back up and the original priorities
are restored, multipathd may not notice that the path layout needs to be
recalculated. This patch makes multipathd recalculate the the priorities of all
the paths when a path is restored, and reloads the map if any of them have
changed.  Also, when a path is restored, multipathd checks twice in
check_path if the pathgroup needs switching.  This should only happen once.
