[RFC PATCH 00/37] block: introduce bio_init_fields()

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

 



Hi,

This is a *compile only RFC* which adds a generic helper to initialize
the various fields of the bio that is repeated all the places in
file-systems, block layer, and drivers.

The new helper allows callers to initialize various members such as
bdev, sector, private, end io callback, io priority, and write hints.

The objective of this RFC is to only start a discussion, this it not 
completely tested at all.                                                                                                            
Following diff shows code level benefits of this helper :-
