Currently, shallow_depth is used by bfq, kyber and mq-deadline, they both
pass in the value for the whole sbitmap, while sbitmap treate the value
for just one word. Which means, shallow_depth never work as expected,
and there really is no such functional tests to covert it.
treate -> treats
The above text is incorrect. I have verified that shallow_depth
restricts the queue depth of asynchronous requests for mq-deadline if it
is reduced from its default value. The function dd_word_to_depth() in
mq-deadline converts the value written into the sysfs attribute into a
value that is appropriate for the sbitmap implementation.
That being said, it seems like a good idea to me to modify how the
sbitmap code interprets 'shallow_depth'.
Thanks,
