[PATCH v2 03/11] multipathd: avoid busy loop in child() for delayed reconfigure

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

 



From: Martin Wilck <mwilck@xxxxxxxx>

If need_to_delay_reconfig() returned true, the logic introduced
by 250708c ("multipathd: improve delayed reconfigure") and
4b104e6 ("multipathd: pass in the type of reconfigure") could cause
child() to run in a tight loop, switching back and forth between
DAEMON_CONFIGURE and DAEMON_IDLE states without actually calling
reconfigure().

Move the logic to postpone reconfigure() calls from __post_config_state()
into child(), entirely, to avoid this situation. This means that child()
needs to poll for reconfigure_pending besides running_state changes.

Fixes: 250708c ("multipathd: improve delayed reconfigure")
Fixes: 4b104e6 ("multipathd: pass in the type of reconfigure")
