Hot unplug handling currently is a mess in the block layer (not just the mq case). Especially if you ever requeue an I/O there is tons of boilerplate code. I wish we could move a little more of this into the core, but right now I don't have a good idea on how to. > 3. Sometimes a read or write gets partially completed.

With the old block layer we did this: > > blk_end_request(req, 0, bytes_xfered); You can still do this with mq, but you have to open code it. Take a look at scsi_end_request which has opencoded versions of the mq and non-mq end_request routines. Currently it's the only example of blk-mq partial completions.
