Srinivasan" <kys@...rosoft.com>, Hannes Reinecke <hare@...e.de>, Christoph Hellwig <hch@....de> Subject: [PATCH 3.16 047/158] Drivers: scsi: storvsc: Implement a eh_timed_out handler 3.16-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: "K. Y. Srinivasan" <kys@...rosoft.com> commit 56b26e69c8283121febedd12b3cc193384af46b9 upstream. On Azure, we have seen instances of unbounded I/O latencies. To deal with this issue, implement handler that can reset the timeout. Note that the host gaurantees that it will respond to each command that has been issued. Signed-off-by: K. Y.
