Situation: One of enclosures is hung and do not reply to any requests (including reset). All sg_* command to any device behind hanged enclosure, including enclosure itself, are stuck in the 'D' state. Problem: Access to sysfs place processes in 'D' state: cat /sys/class/enclosure/5\:0\:46\:0/Slot\ 01/locate root 588 0.0 0.0 7152 612 pts/6 D+ 08:40 0:00 cat /sys/class/enclosure/5:0:46:0/Slot 01/locate Proposed solution: Add timeout to ses devices independent of HBA driver. Rationale: Accessing to sysfs do not expect to be 'real IO' with chances to hung in 'D' forever.
