Hello, While running a cable pull simulation test with dm_multipath on top of the SRP initiator driver I noticed that after a few iterations I/O locks up instead of dm_multipath processing the path failure properly (see also below for a call trace). At least kernel versions 3.15 and 3.16-rc2 are vulnerable. This issue does not occur with kernel 3.14. I have tried to bisect this but gave up when I noticed that I/O locked up completely with a kernel built from git commit ID e809917735ebf1b9a56c24e877ce0d320baee2ec (dm mpath: push back requests instead of queueing). But with the bisect I have been able to narrow down this issue to one of the patches in "Merge tag 'dm-3.15-changes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ device-mapper/linux-dm". Does anyone have a suggestion how to analyze this further or how to fix this ?
