Subject: [PATCH 06/11] multipath: do not call tur in sync mode if pthread_cancel fails
Date: Fri, 13 Dec 2013 13:14:09 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1386936854-8399-7-git-send-email-hare@suse.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1386936854-8399-1-git-send-email-hare@suse.de>

When pthread_cancel fails the thread is stuck, most likely
during I/O submission. So it would be pointless to call the
tur checker in sync mode here, as this would be stuck, too.
Hence we should rather return 'PATH_TIMEOUT' and hope the
situation resolves itself over time.
