Quinn Tran Any interest in getting this pulled in. Revision3 has been in use at customers and in our lab for some time now with no issues. Revision3 Moved the discard to the __qlt_do_work code to prevent the memory leak, this cleans up the allocations. I will look at seeing how best this can be done for the other transports, or in the core but for me the most useful case has been F/C. I wanted to get feedback so far, and suggest that we should start with this as the initial jamming patch as its the least risky change for now. I did test this and ran the same set of tests I normally use this error injection for and it looks good. Patch notes ----------- I use target LIO for all my storage array test targets and customer problem resolution here at Red Hat. This patch resulted from a requirement to mimic behaviour of an expensive hardware jammer for a customer. I have used this for some time with good success to simulate and reproduce latency and slow drain fabric issues and for testing and validating error handling behaviour in the Emulex, Qlogic and other F/C drivers. While the jammer is enabled SCSI commands are discarded for the selected host and this allows all the multipath error recovery and other LLD driver error recovery and timeout code to be debugged and tested. Works by checking new parameter jam_host if its >= 0 and matches vha->host_no , jamming is enabled when jam_host >=0 If parameter set to -1 (default) no jamming is enabled. I decided to share the patch, in the hope it may be useful for others but I do understand this is a special use case.
