Bharath Ravi 0ab710458d scsi: iscsi: Perform connection failure entirely in kernel space
Connection failure processing depends on a daemon being present to (at
least) stop the connection and start recovery.  This is a problem on a
multipath scenario, where if the daemon failed for whatever reason, the
SCSI path is never marked as down, multipath won't perform the failover and
IO to the device will be forever waiting for that connection to come back.

This patch performs the connection failure entirely inside the kernel.
This way, the failover can happen and pending IO can continue even if the
daemon is dead. Once the daemon comes alive again, it can execute recovery
procedures if applicable.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
