Re: [PATCH 5/7] blk-mq-sched: add framework for MQ capable IO schedulers

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

 



Hey, Jens, a couple of minor nits below.

One bigger note: adding the blk_mq_sched_*() helpers and keeping the
blk_mq_*() helpers that they replaced seems risky. For example,
blk_mq_free_request() is superseded by blk_mq_sched_put_request(), but
we kept blk_mq_free_request(). There are definitely some codepaths that
are still using blk_mq_free_request() that are now wrong
(__nvme_submit_user_cmd() is the most obvious one I saw).

Can we get rid of the old, non-sched functions? Or maybe even make old
interface do the sched stuff instead of adding blk_mq_sched_*()?

This belongs in patch 4 where flush_busy_ctxs() got renamed.

Looks like the declaration of blk_mq_process_sw_list() survived a rebase
even though it doesn't exist anymore.
