Hi, Would anyone object if I commit a change that basically doubles the timeout value used when writing filemarks? Perhaps we should make this a sysctl variable? Currently scsi_write_filemarks() is called from sawritefilemarks() with a timeout of 60 seconds. For some older tape drives this is not enough. I have been testing my Exabyte 8500 with this fix, and it now reliably is able to write the filemark without timing out. Comments?
