+Subject: [PATCH] make ofdisk_retries optional
+
+The feature Retry on Fail added to GRUB can cause a LPM to take
+longer if the SAN is slow.
+
+When a LPM to external site occur, the path of the disk can change
+and thus the disk search function on grub can take some time since
+it is used as a hint. This can cause the Retry on Fail feature to
+try to access the disk 20x times (since this is hardcoded number)
+and, if the SAN is slow, the boot time can increase a lot.
+In some situations not acceptable.
+
+The following patch enables a configuration at user space of the
+maximum number of retries we want for this feature.
+
+The variable ofdisk_retries should be set using grub2-editenv
+and will be checked by retry function. If the variable is not set,
+so the default number of retries will be used instead.
