[PATCH] ibmvfc: Avoid path failures during live migration

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

 



This patch fixes an issue reported when performing a live
migration when multipath is configured with a short fast
fail timeout of 5 seconds and also to have no_path_retry
set to fail. In this scenario, all paths would go into the
devloss state while the ibmvfc driver went through discovery
to log back in. On a loaded system, the discovery might
take longer than 5 seconds, which was resulting in all paths
being marked failed, which then resulted in a read only filesystem.

This patch changes the migration code in ibmvfc to
avoid deleting rports at all in this scenario, so we
avoid losing all paths.
