The SCSI timeout also applies to the TUR commands sent by multipathd,
so that's about the time it would wait, plus/minus a few seconds
(multipathd doesn't try to be accurate). Note that you can set the
"checker_timeout" configuration option to modify the timeout value.
If other ("normal") SCSI commands time out, and the kernel error
handling results in failing the path, multipathd will be notified by an
DM event. But the kernel will not necessarily fail the path immediately
after a command timeout.
