[PATCH v2] dm mpath: Add timeout mechanism for queue_if_no_path

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

 



From: Anatol Pomazau <anatol@xxxxxxxxxx>

Add a configurable timeout mechanism to disable queue_if_no_path without
assistance from multipathd.  In reality, this reimplements the
no_path_retry mechanism from multipathd in kernel space, which is
interesting to prevent processes from hanging indefinitely in cases
where the daemon might be unable to respond, after a failure or for
whatever reason.

Despite replicating the policy configuration on kernel space, it is
quite an important case to prevent IOs from hanging forever, waiting for
userspace to behave correctly.

v2:
  - Use a module parameter instead of configuring per table
  - Simplify code
