- if (!wait_for_completion_timeout(&request->done, 30 * HZ)) { + if (!wait_for_completion_interruptible_timeout(&request->done, + 30 * HZ)) { retval = -ETIMEDOUT; goto out; }Now this function can succeed or fail because of ETIMEDOUT or an interrupt. I think you should return -EINTR or maybe -ESYSRESTART if interrupted.
Rodrigo, you are right. Marcos, could you please send updated patch that returns different error code for timeout vs interrupt condition? I dropped the patch for now. Thanks. -- Dmitry
