[dm-devel] [PATCH v2 12/14] libmutipath: deprecate delay_*_checks
Benjamin Marzinski

Fri Aug 23 17:48:56 UTC 2019
The delay_checks shaky paths detection method works the same way as the
san_path_err method, but not as well, with less configurability, and
with the code spread all over check_path(). The only real difference is
that marks the path as marginal for a certain number of path checks
instead of for a specific time. This patch deprecates the delay_checks
method and maps it to the the san_path_err method.
