From 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Diego Domingos Date: Wed, 10 Mar 2021 14:17:52 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] ieee1275/ofdisk: retry on open failure This patch aims to make grub more robust when booting from SAN/Multipath disks. If a path is failing intermittently so grub will retry the OPEN and READ the disk (grub_ieee1275_open and grub_ieee1275_read) until the total amount of times specified in MAX_RETRIES.
