https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=215704 Bug ID: 215704 Summary: Trouble locating documentation related to disk read timeout /sys/block/*/device/timeout OR /sys/devices/**/timeout Product: Documentation Version: unspecified Hardware: All OS: Linux Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P1 Component: man-pages Assignee: documentation_man-pages@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Reporter: mjevans1983@xxxxxxxxx Regression: No I've been unable to locate Documentation that matches some locations within sysfs. /sys/block/*/device/timeout /sys/devices/**/timeout They all appear to cat a value of 30. However an initial experiment with this value appears to diverge from assumptions I had made. My context is related to TLER smartctl -l scterc,${TIMEOUT_SEC}0,${TIMEOUT_SEC}0 /dev/sdX I have a software RAID (ZFS in this case) which isn't interacting the way it expects with underlying hardware. I was hoping to find a manual that might explain how the block device tunable fields such as 'timeout' are intended to be utilized and tuned. I didn't see anything obvious in search of text and 'reStructuredText' files with the obvious keyword: https://github.com/torvalds/linux/search?l=Text&p=6&q=timeout https://github.com/torvalds/linux/search?l=reStructuredText&p=16&q=timeout -- You may reply to this email to add a comment.
