Subject: [PATCH v9 19/29] scsi-multipath: failover handling
Date: Sun, 8 Nov 2026 20:47:23 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261108204733.557995-20-john.garry@linux.dev> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261108204733.557995-1-john.garry@linux.dev>
Failover occurs when the scsi_cmnd has failed and it is discovered that the
target scsi_device has transport down.
For a scsi command which suffers failover, requeue the master bio of each
bio attached to its request.
A bio which for which failover occurs is handled in
scsi_mpath_clone_end_io(). Failover is detected for blk_path_error()
occuring, same as how dm-mpath detects this.
