Subject: [PATCH v2] scsi: Add 'retry_timeout' to avoid infinite command retry
Currently, scsi error handling in scsi_io_completion() tries to
unconditionally requeue scsi command when device keeps some error state.
For example, UNIT_ATTENTION causes infinite retry with
action == ACTION_RETRY.
This is because retryable errors are thought to be temporary and the scsi
device will soon recover from those errors. Normally, such retry policy is
appropriate because the device will soon recover from temporary error state.
But there is no guarantee that device is able to recover from error state
immediately. Actually, we've experienced an infinite retry on some hardware.
Therefore hardware error can results in infinite command retry loop.
This patch adds 'retry_timeout' sysfs attribute which limits the retry time
of each scsi command. This attribute is located in scsi sysfs directory
for example "/sys/bus/scsi/devices/X:X:X:X/" and value is in seconds.
Once scsi command retry time is longer than this timeout,
the command is treated as failure. 'retry_timeout' is set to '0' by default
which means no timeout set.
Usage:
- To set retry timeout(set retry_timeout to 30 sec):
# echo 30 > /sys/bus/scsi/devices/X:X:X:X/retry_timeout
Changes in v2:
- check retry timeout in scsi_io_completion() instead of scsi_softirq_done()
