[PATCH 1/1] Drivers: scsi: Derive the FLUSH_TIMEOUT from the basic I/O timeout

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

 



Rather than having a separate constant for specifying the timeout on FLUSH
operations, use the basic I/O timeout value that is already configurable
on a per target basis to derive the FLUSH timeout. Looking at the current
definitions of these timeout values, the FLUSH operation is supposed to have
a value that is twice the normal timeout value. This patch preserves this
relationship while leveraging the flexibility of specifying the I/O timeout.

I would like to thank Eric Seppanen <eric@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> and 
Nicholas A. Bellinger <nab@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> for their help in resolving
this issue.
