[PATCH 4/6] blk-mq: update comments on blk_mq_quiesce_queue()

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

 



Actually what we want to get from blk_mq_quiesce_queue()
isn't only to wait for completion of all ongooing .queue_rq().

In the typical context of canceling requests, we need to
make sure that the following is done in the dispatch path
before starting to cancel requests:
	- failed dispatched request is freeed
	- busy dispatched request is requeued, and the STARTED
	flag is cleared
