Subject: [PATCH v9 16/29] scsi-multipath: clone each bio
Date: Sun, 8 Nov 2026 20:47:20 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261108204733.557995-17-john.garry@linux.dev> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261108204733.557995-1-john.garry@linux.dev>
For failover handling, we will take the approach to resubmit each
bio.
However, unlike NVMe, for SCSI there is no guarantee that any bio submitted
is either all or none completed.
As such, for SCSI, for failover handling we will take the approach to
just re-submit the original bio. For this, clone and submit each bio.
