Subject: [PATCH v2 3/3] scsi: core: do not retry passthrough requests on disconnected targets
Date: Thu, 12 Nov 2026 18:49:21 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261113024922.27977-4-sarthakkukreti@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261113024922.27977-1-sarthakkukreti@google.com>
Unlike scsi_decide_disposition(), scsi_check_passthrough() matches
SCMD_FAILURE_RESULT_ANY before checking the host byte and returns
-EAGAIN on DID_NO_CONNECT, DID_BAD_TARGET, and DID_TRANSPORT_FAILFAST.
Callers using SCMD_FAILURE_RESULT_ANY (such as sd_sync_cache())
therefore retry passthrough commands against disconnected targets.
Return 0 from scsi_check_passthrough() when the host byte is
DID_NO_CONNECT, DID_BAD_TARGET, or DID_TRANSPORT_FAILFAST, and update
scsi_lib_test_any_failure().
Fixes: 994724e6b3f0 ("scsi: core: Allow passthrough to request midlayer retries")
