Does anyone know of a way to disable libata's 5-time retry when a read fails?
It has the effect of causing every failed sector read to take 6
seconds before it fails, causing raid5 rebuilds to go awfully slow.
It's generally undesirable too, when you've got RAID on top that can
write replacement data onto the failed sectors..
