When a host is configured with a few LUNs and I/O is running, injecting FC faults repeatedly leads to path recovery problems. The LUNs have 4 paths each and 3 of them come back active after say an FC fault which makes 2 of the paths go down, instead of all 4. This happens after several iterations of continuous FC faults. Reason here is that we're returning an I/O error whenever we're encountering sense code 06/04/0a (LOGICAL UNIT NOT ACCESSIBLE, ASYMMETRIC ACCESS STATE TRANSITION) instead of retrying. [mwilck: The original patch was developed by Rajashekhar M A and Hannes Reinecke. I moved the code to alua_check_sense() as suggested by Mike Christie [1]. Evan Milne had raised the question whether pg->state should be set to transitioning in the UA case [2]. I believe that doing this is correct. SCSI_ACCESS_STATE_TRANSITIONING by itself doesn't cause I/O errors. Our handler schedules an RTPG, which will only result in an I/O error condition if the transitioning timeout expires.] [1] https://lore.kernel.org/all/0bc96e82-fdda-4187-148d-5b34f81d4942@oracle.com/ [2] https://lore.kernel.org/all/CAGtn9r=kicnTDE2o7Gt5Y=yoidHYD7tG8XdMHEBJTBraVEoOCw@mail.gmail.com/Co-developed-by: Rajashekhar M A <rajs@netapp.com> Co-developed-by: Hannes Reinecke <hare@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Hannes Reinecke <hare@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Martin Wilck <martin.wilck@suse.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240514140344.19538-1-mwilck@suse.comReviewed-by: Damien Le Moal <dlemoal@kernel.org> Reviewed-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Reviewed-by: Mike Christie <michael.christie@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Martin K.
