Subject: [PATCH] multipathd: Don't keep starting TUR threads, if they always
|
|
hang.
|
|
|
|
If tur thead hangs, multipathd was simply creating a new thread, and
|
|
assuming that the old thread would get cleaned up eventually. I have
|
|
seen a case recently where there were 26000 multipathd threads on a
|
|
system, all stuck trying to send TUR commands to path devices. The root
|
|
cause of the issue was a scsi kernel issue, but it shows that the way
|
|
multipathd currently deals with stuck threads could use some refinement.
|
|
|
|
Now, when one tur thread hangs, multipathd will act as it did before.
|
|
If a second one in a row hangs, multipathd will instead wait for it to
|
|
complete before starting another thread. Once the thread completes, the
|
|
count is reset.
