mav 2011-07-29 20:30:28 UTC FreeBSD src repository Modified files: sys/cam cam_periph.c Log: SVN rev 224496 on 2011-07-29 20:30:28Z by mav In some cases failed SATA disks may report their presence, but don't respond to any commands. I've found that because of multiple command retries, each of which cause 30s timeout, bus reset and another retry or requeue for many commands, it may take ages to eventually drop the failed device. The odd thing is that those retries continue even after XPT considered device as dead and invalidated it. This patch makes cam_periph_error() to block any command retries after periph was marked as invalid. With that patch all activity completes in 1-2 minutes, just after several timeouts, required to consider device death. This should make ZFS, gmirror, graid, etc. operation more robust.
