Bfq can't handle sync io concurrently as long as the io are not issued from root group currently. Previous patch set: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20211014014556.3597008-2-yukuai3@xxxxxxxxxx/t/ During implemting the method mentioned by the above patch set, I found more problems that will block implemting concurrent sync io. The modifications of this patch set are as follows: 1) count root group into 'num_groups_with_pending_reqs'; 2) don't idle if 'num_groups_with_pending_reqs' is 1; 3) If the group doesn't have pending requests while it's child groups have pending requests, don't count the group. 4) Once the group doesn't have pending requests, decrease 'num_groups_with_pending_reqs' immediately. Don't delay to when all it's child groups don't have pending requests.
friendly ping ...
Noted that I just tested basic functionality of this patchset, and I think it's better to see if anyone have suggestions or better solutions.
