rsync patch
...nd timeouts are retried by the kernel six times, so without adjusting the SCSI command timeout rsync (or anything in userspace) will be waiting three minutes after each error. Five seconds is long enough to exceed the USB bus reset cycle. Additionally, it is probably wise to set nr_requests to 1, readahead_kb to 0 and nomerges to 1 for the affected drive. Feedback on the patch is appreciated. Sincerely, Steve Thompson
