[PATCH 0/8] IB SRP initiator patches for kernel 3.12

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

 



The purpose of this InfiniBand SRP initiator patch series is as follows:
- Make the SRP initiator driver better suited for use in a H.A. setup.
  Add fast_io_fail_tmo, dev_loss_tmo and reconnect_delay parameters.
  These can be used either to speed up failover or to avoid device
  removal when e.g. using initiator side mirroring.
- Make the SRP initiator better suited for use on NUMA systems by
  making the HCA completion vector configurable.
- Improve performance by making the queue size configurable.

Changes since the previous patch series are:
- Rewrote the srp_tmo_valid() to improve readability (requested by Dave
  Dillow).
- The combination (reconnect_delay < 0 && fast_io_fail_tmo < 0 &&
  dev_loss_tmo < 0) is now rejected as requested by Dave Dillow.
- Fixed a race between transport layer failure handling and device
  removal. This issue was reported by Vu Pham.
