Without any failure, right? Unfortunately, as you can imagine, no boot failure occurred on any of my test systems so far :( This version of bfq-mq can be configured to print all its activity in the kernel log, by just defining a macro. This will of course slow down the system so much to make it probably unusable, if bfq-mq is active from boot. Yet, the failure may still occur so early to make this approach useful to discover where bfq-mq gets stuck. As of now I have no better ideas. Any suggestion is welcome.
