[PATCH 4/4] dm-mpath: move initial pg-init kick into __switch_pg()

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This patch moves initial pg-init kick into __switch_pg().
This has 2 meanings below:
  - Fix the issue that ioctl isn't processed until any I/O is issued.
    multipath_ioctl() doesn't kick pg-init even if it selects a path
    in a new pg, so it returns with -EAGAIN.  That state never be
    changed and ioctl is always returns with -EAGAIN until any I/O is
    issued and pg-init is kicked.
    By this patch, multipath_ioctl() kicks pg-init when it selects
    a path in a new pg, so following ioctl will be processed in
    the near future without any I/O.

  - By this patch, process_queued_ios() has no pg-init handling and
    it works just for queued I/Os in the multipath internal queue.
    So this patch makes removing multipath internal queue easy.
