Subject: Tunable timeout in cifs module.
Date: Tue, 20 Oct 2015 13:50:10 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1445329210.10711.13.camel@redhat.com> (raw)

Hello Steve/linux-cifs,

We have received a request to make the timeout in the cifs module
tunable.

I have gone through the code to understand timeouts in the cifs client.
http://sprabhu.blogspot.in/2015/08/investigation-into-effects-of-server
.html

The way to allow user settable timeout values is to make the value of
 SMB_ECHO_INTERVAL tunable. Do you think this is a good idea?
