This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled Staging: hv: storvsc: Increase the timeout value in the storvsc
to my staging git tree which can be found at git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/staging-2.6.git in the staging-next branch. The patch will show up in the next release of the linux-next tree (usually sometime within the next 24 hours during the week.) The patch will also will be merged in the next major kernel release during the merge window. If you have any questions about this process, please let me know. >From 46d2eb6d82ef44be58ae192c35e8cd52485f02eb Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "K. Y. Srinivasan" <k...@microsoft.com> Date: Thu, 16 Jun 2011 13:16:36 -0700 Subject: Staging: hv: storvsc: Increase the timeout value in the storvsc driver On some loaded windows hosts, we have discovered that the host may not respond to guest requests within the specified time (one second) as evidenced by the guest timing out. Fix this problem by increasing the timeout to 5 seconds. It may be useful to apply this patch to the 3.0 kernel as well. the 3.0 kernel as well. Signed-off-by: K. Y.
