From 8e67ce6072a0ab7fcefbbd2913fa4eaf3fdd8d68 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Rob Evers Date: Fri, 18 May 2012 14:08:55 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] [SCSI] scsi_dh_alua: retry alua rtpg extended header for illegal request response Some storage arrays are known to return 'illegal request' when an rtpg extended header request is made. T10 says the array should ignore the bit, and return the non-extended rtpg as the array doesn't support the request. Working around this by retrying the rtpg request without the extended header bit set when the extended rtpg request results in illegal request.
