Thanks for the comments, So blk_mq_tag_idle() can be also simplified as below, I will send v2 patch for reviewing. static inline void blk_mq_tag_idle(struct blk_mq_hw_ctx *hctx) { - if (!(hctx->flags & BLK_MQ_F_TAG_QUEUE_SHARED)) - return; - - __blk_mq_tag_idle(hctx); + if (hctx->flags & BLK_MQ_F_TAG_QUEUE_SHARED) + __blk_mq_tag_idle(hctx); } -----Original Message----- From: Ming Lei [mailto:ming.lei@xxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Thursday, December 10, 2020 12:01 PM To: tianxianting (RD) <tian.xianting@xxxxxxx> Cc: axboe@xxxxxxxxx; linux-block@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx; linux-kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: [PATCH] blk-mq-tag: make blk_mq_tag_busy() return void On Tue, Dec 08, 2020 at 03:40:02PM +0800, Xianting Tian wrote: > As no one cares about the return value of blk_mq_tag_busy() and > __blk_mq_tag_busy(), so make them return void. > > Signed-off-by: Xianting Tian <tian.xianting@xxxxxxx> > --- > block/blk-mq-tag.c | 4 ++-- > block/blk-mq-tag.h | 8 ++++---- > 2 files changed, 6 insertions(+), 6 deletions(-) > > diff --git a/block/blk-mq-tag.c b/block/blk-mq-tag.c index > 9c92053e7..21ff7d156 100644 > --- a/block/blk-mq-tag.c > +++ b/block/blk-mq-tag.c > @@ -21,7 +21,7 @@ > * to get tag when first time, the other shared-tag users could reserve > * budget for it. > */ > -bool __blk_mq_tag_busy(struct blk_mq_hw_ctx *hctx) > +void __blk_mq_tag_busy(struct blk_mq_hw_ctx *hctx) > { > if (blk_mq_is_sbitmap_shared(hctx->flags)) { > struct request_queue *q = hctx->queue; @@ -36,7 +36,7 @@ bool > __blk_mq_tag_busy(struct blk_mq_hw_ctx *hctx) > atomic_inc(&hctx->tags->active_queues); > } > > - return true; > + return; > } > > /* > diff --git a/block/blk-mq-tag.h b/block/blk-mq-tag.h index > 7d3e6b333..dd80e5a85 100644 > --- a/block/blk-mq-tag.h > +++ b/block/blk-mq-tag.h > @@ -60,15 +60,15 @@ enum { > BLK_MQ_TAG_MAX = BLK_MQ_NO_TAG - 1, > }; > > -extern bool __blk_mq_tag_busy(struct blk_mq_hw_ctx *); > +extern void __blk_mq_tag_busy(struct blk_mq_hw_ctx *); > extern void __blk_mq_tag_idle(struct blk_mq_hw_ctx *); > > -static inline bool blk_mq_tag_busy(struct blk_mq_hw_ctx *hctx) > +static inline void blk_mq_tag_busy(struct blk_mq_hw_ctx *hctx) > { > if (!(hctx->flags & BLK_MQ_F_TAG_QUEUE_SHARED)) > - return false; > + return; > > - return __blk_mq_tag_busy(hctx); > + __blk_mq_tag_busy(hctx); The above can be simplified as: if (hctx->flags & BLK_MQ_F_TAG_QUEUE_SHARED) __blk_mq_tag_busy(hctx); Otherwise, looks fine: Reviewed-by: Ming Lei <ming.lei@xxxxxxxxxx> Thanks, Ming
