multipath: Set 'tur' as the default path checker for NetApp LUNs
PATCH 1/1 multipath: Set 'tur' as the default path checker for NetApp LUNs
In our tests, we've noticed that the 'tur' checker provides better performance compared to 'directio' primarily because 'tur' does not use FS-based requests unlike 'directio'. Moreover with Hannes' recent async tur enhancement, the 'tur' checker is more efficient now than before.
So we'd prefer using 'tur' as the default path checker for NetApp LUNs now. The below patch enables the same by updating the .checker_name in the hwtable for NetApp LUNs.
