Wouldn't it be nicer to keep manual as the default and remove all FAILBACK_UNDEF from the hwtable ? In the current code base, FAILBACK_UNDEF causes need_switch_pathgroup() to refresh each path prio and mpp->bestpg, and return to the caller it should switch pathgroup. But the caller (check_path()) won't switch anyway. As I read it FAILBACK_UNDEF never fails back automatically, like FAILBACK_MANUAL, but causes unecessary work. Hannes, Ben, do you confirm I read correctly ? Would you ack to removal of FAILBACK_UNDEF from the hwtable ?

FAILBACK_UNDEF always was kinda pointless, as and we're now using defaults more aggressively I'm all for dropping FAILBACK_UNDEF and use FAILBACK_MANUAL as the default. Cheers, Hannes
