Hello Martin, The conclusion of a recent discussion is that .jiffies_at_alloc and .retries should be set once at the start of a lifetime of a SCSI request instead of every time a request is requeued. This patch series realizes that. Please consider these patches for kernel v4.14. Thanks, Bart. Bart Van Assche (3): Call scsi_initialize_rq() also for filesystem requests Improve requeuing behavior Show .retries and .jiffies_at_alloc in debugfs drivers/scsi/scsi_debugfs.c | 3 ++- drivers/scsi/scsi_lib.c | 41 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++------ include/scsi/scsi_cmnd.h | 3 +++ 3 files changed, 40 insertions(+), 7 deletions(-) -- 2.14.1
