Re: [PATCH 03/17] block: provide a direct_make_request helper

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

 




+/**
+ * direct_make_request - hand a buffer directly to its device driver for I/O
+ * @bio:  The bio describing the location in memory and on the device.
+ *
+ * This function behaves like generic_make_request(), but does not protect
+ * against recursion.  Must only be used if the called driver is known
+ * to not call generic_make_request (or direct_make_request) again from
+ * its make_request function.  (Calling direct_make_request again from
+ * a workqueue is perfectly fine as that doesn't recurse).

Question: are the double spaces on purpose?

Other than that,
