Name

srp_tmo_valid — check timeout combination validity

Synopsis

int srp_tmo_valid (int reconnect_delay,
 int fast_io_fail_tmo,
 int dev_loss_tmo);
 

Arguments

int reconnect_delay

Reconnect delay in seconds.

int fast_io_fail_tmo

Fast I/O fail timeout in seconds.

int dev_loss_tmo

Device loss timeout in seconds.

Description

The combination of the timeout parameters must be such that SCSI commands are finished in a reasonable time. Hence do not allow the fast I/O fail timeout to exceed SCSI_DEVICE_BLOCK_MAX_TIMEOUT nor allow dev_loss_tmo to exceed that limit if failing I/O fast has been disabled. Furthermore, these parameters must be such that multipath can detect failed paths timely. Hence do not allow all three parameters to be disabled simultaneously.
