Re: [PATCH 1/3] virtio: add virtioqueue_more_used()

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

 




在 2021/5/20 下午10:13, Stefan Hajnoczi 写道:
Add an API to check whether there are pending used buffers. There is
already a similar API called virtqueue_poll() but it only works together
with virtqueue_enable_cb_prepare(). The patches that follow add blk-mq
->poll() support to virtio_blk and they need to check for used buffers
without re-enabling virtqueue callbacks, so introduce an API for it.

Typo in the subject.

It's worth to mention that the function is not serialized (no barriers).

Thanks
