+Subject: iSCSI: let session recovery_tmo sysfs writes persist across recovery
+
+The iSCSI session recovery_tmo setting is writeable in sysfs, but it's
+also set every time a connection is established when parameters are set
+from iscsid over netlink. That results in the timeout being reset to
+the default value after every recovery.
+
+The DM multipath tools want to use the sysfs interface to lower the
+default timeout when there are multiple paths to fail over. It has
+caused confusion that we have a writeable sysfs value that seem to keep
+resetting itself.
+
+This patch adds an in-kernel flag that gets set once a sysfs write
+occurs, and then ignores netlink parameter setting once it's been
+modified via the sysfs interface. My thinking here is that the sysfs
+interface is much simpler for external tools to influence the session
+timeout, but if we're going to allow it to be modified directly we
+should ensure that setting is maintained.
