Subject: [PATCH] libmutipath: continue to use old state on PATH_PENDING
When pathinfo() sets pp->state to PATH_PENDING, it can cause problems
with path checking. It should act more like check_path(). When
check_path() sees a new state of PATH_PENDING, it doesn't update the
path state at all, so a path's old state is normally never PATH_PENDING.
As and example of the problems of setting a path to PATH_PENDING, If
check_path() sets a path's state to PATH_UP, then a call to pathinfo()
sets the state to PATH_PENDING, and then another call the check_path()
sets the state to PATH_DOWN, multipathd won't fail the path in the
kernel. Also, if a path's state is PATH_PENDING, and nr_active is
recalculated, that path will count as down, even if the state was
previously PATH_UP. If a path already has a state of PATH_WILD or
PATH_UNCHECKED, changing it to PATH_PENDING won't hurt anything, and it
will help anyone who sees it know what's actually happening. But
otherwise, pathinfo() should leave the previous state alone.
