Correct me if I am wrong, but I think interruptible is good with hard

a good option to prevent hangs.

soft mount means an I/O operation can timeout and return failure
interruptible mount means you can kill a process undergoing I/O, which
is useful for cleanup routine.

Both are like belt with sustenders, but given how likely we are to hang,
it does not hurts.


We again hit this problem [1]. Can we use soft mount with some retries and timeouts so that we don't need manual intervention to recover a hung VM?

Thanks,
