Unfortunately the patch wasn't quite correct - all TEST_UNIT_READY commands are sent as BLOCK_PC, so this would basically revert James' original fix for the SATL case. Am I right to assume you only need the call to scsi_dh->check_sense and not the rest of the handling for the multipath path checker? If that's the case something like the patch below sould work: diff --git a/drivers/scsi/scsi_error.c b/drivers/scsi/scsi_error.c index 5db8454..399c1c8 100644 --- a/drivers/scsi/scsi_error.c +++ b/drivers/scsi/scsi_error.c @@ -459,14 +459,6 @@ static int scsi_check_sense(struct scsi_cmnd *scmd) if (! scsi_command_normalize_sense(scmd, &sshdr)) return FAILED; /* no valid sense data */ - if (scmd->cmnd[0] == TEST_UNIT_READY && scmd->scsi_done != scsi_eh_done) - /* - * nasty: for mid-layer issued TURs, we need to return the - * actual sense data without any recovery attempt.
