This patchset implements a new 'eh_deadline' attribute to the
SCSI host. It will limit the overall SCSI EH runtime by a given
timeout. If the timeout is reached all intermediate EH steps
will be skipped and host reset will be scheduled immediately.
For this patch I've re-used the existing 'last_reset' field
of the SCSI host to store the initial time SCSI EH started.
Also the field 'resetting' has been removed as it never has
been used as intended.
As 'last_reset' might be in use by transport-specific EH
implementation I've disallowed eh_deadline setting there.
Changes from the initial version:
- Add list_splice_init() calls to avoid stale commands
- Rename function to scsi_host_eh_past_deadline

Looks good. We have been testing this extensively.
I'm wondering how do you test, with a special hardware or self-made
module?Would you mind pasting your test method() and result?
Thanks,
Ren
