No, not sure how you got there. I'd have thought the 5 references to "REQ_FAILFAST_TRANSPORT" would've been sufficient ;) This patch makes it so requests marked with REQ_FAILFAST_TRANSPORT are allowed to use NVMe's local retry (that is required for non-transport errors). > So what is it you're trying to solve? What the patch header, code and code comment detail.
