Subject: [PATCH] SUNRPC: add transport details to timeout diagnostics
Date: Thu, 20 Aug 2026 13:13:03 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260820111303.455807-1-pvorel@suse.cz> (raw)

Nice improvement, thanks!

nit: Would it work to assign req and task earlier (just readability?)
Or is it not safe before checking RPC_SIGNALLED(task)?
struct rpc_clnt *clnt = task->tk_client;
struct rpc_rqst *req = task->tk_rqstp;
struct rpc_xprt *xprt = req->rq_xprt;
The rest LGTM.
