Hi All, In our product system, we have several sata disks attached to one machine. So when one of the disk fails, the jbd2(yes, we use ext4) will hang forever and we will get something in /var/log/messages like below. It seems to me that the io sent to the scsi layer is never returned back with -EIO which is a little bit surprised for me(It should be a timeout somewhere, right?). We have tried echo "offline" > /sys/block/sdl/device/state, but it doesn't work. So is there any way for us to let the scsi device returns all the io requests back with EIO so that all the end_io can be called accordingly? Am I missing something here? Thanks, Tao sd 0:0:11:0: attempting task abort! scmd(ffff88180e900580) sd 0:0:11:0: [sdl] CDB: Write(10): 2a 00 0d ca e0 3f 00 04 00 00 target0:0:11: handle(0x0015), sas_address(0x500e004aaaaaaa0b), phy(11) target0:0:11: enclosure_logical_id(0x500e004aaaaaaa00), slot(11) INFO: task jbd2/sdl1-8:4629 blocked for more than 120 seconds.
