[GIT PULL] Block fixes for 4.16-rc

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

 



Hi Linus,

A followup pull request for this merge window, though most of this is
fixes and not new code/features. This pull request contains:

- skd fix from Arnd, fixing a build error dependent on sla allocator
  type.

- blk-mq scheduler discard merging fixes, one from me and one from
  Keith. This fixes a segment miscalculation for blk-mq-sched, where we
  mistakenly think two segments are physically contigious even though
  the request isn't carrying real data. Also fixes a bio-to-rq merge
  case.

- Don't re-set a bit on the buffer_head flags, if it's already set. This
  can cause scalability concerns on bigger machines and workloads. From
  Kemi Wang.

- Add BLK_STS_DEV_RESOURCE return value to blk-mq, allowing us to
  distuingish between a local (device related) resource starvation and a
  global one. The latter might happen without IO being in flight, so it
  has to be handled a bit differently. From Ming.

Please pull!
