From: Vincent Fu <vincent.fu@xxxxxxx>
Jens, this series of patches allocates io_u's and io_u_all members from
shared memory when serialize_overlap=1 and io_submit_mode=offload so
that processes can now be used. Also included are the locking comments
you requested and some other cleanups. Please let me know what comments
you have.
Vincent Fu (4):
fio: add function to check for serialize_overlap with offload
submission
fio: enable cross-thread overlap checking with processes
fio: document locking for overlap checking in offload mode
docs: serialize_overlap=1 with io_submit_mode=offload no longer
requires threads
