Read/Write/Open sometimes may take several minutes. And especially, "write" must be in sequential manner.

It seems operations timeout are all hardcoded, and cannot be adjusted during mount. After timeout, CIFS client will reconnect and then resume "write" from where is broken (but this is not acceptable for my case). > > Is there a way to make CIFS client block at slow operations without timeout? > > > Thanks > Mike > > -- Thanks, Steve -- Thanks, Steve -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-cifs" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
