[PATCH 0/5] block/drivers: don't clear the flag that is not set

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

 



Hi,

The drivers in this patch-series tries to clear the
QUEUE_FLAG_ADD_RANDOM that is not set at all in the queue allocation
and initialization path in :-

drivers/block/mtip32xx/mtip32xx.c:	blk_queue_flag_clear(QUEUE_FLAG_ADD_RANDOM, dd->queue);
drivers/block/null_blk/main.c:	blk_queue_flag_clear(QUEUE_FLAG_ADD_RANDOM, nullb->q);
drivers/block/rbd.c:	/* QUEUE_FLAG_ADD_RANDOM is off by default for blk-mq */
drivers/block/zram/zram_drv.c:	blk_queue_flag_clear(QUEUE_FLAG_ADD_RANDOM, zram->disk->queue);
drivers/block/nbd.c:	blk_queue_flag_clear(QUEUE_FLAG_ADD_RANDOM, disk->queue);
drivers/block/brd.c:	blk_queue_flag_clear(QUEUE_FLAG_ADD_RANDOM, disk->queue);
drivers/md/bcache/super.c:	blk_queue_flag_clear(QUEUE_FLAG_ADD_RANDOM, d->disk->queue);
drivers/md/dm-table.c:	 * Clear QUEUE_FLAG_ADD_RANDOM if any underlying device does not
drivers/md/dm-table.c:		blk_queue_flag_clear(QUEUE_FLAG_ADD_RANDOM, q);
drivers/mmc/core/queue.c:	blk_queue_flag_clear(QUEUE_FLAG_ADD_RANDOM, mq->queue);
drivers/mtd/mtd_blkdevs.c:	blk_queue_flag_clear(QUEUE_FLAG_ADD_RANDOM, new->rq);
drivers/s390/block/scm_blk.c:	blk_queue_flag_clear(QUEUE_FLAG_ADD_RANDOM, rq);
drivers/scsi/sd.c:		blk_queue_flag_clear(QUEUE_FLAG_ADD_RANDOM, q);
drivers/scsi/sd.c:		blk_queue_flag_set(QUEUE_FLAG_ADD_RANDOM, q);
include/linux/blkdev.h:#define QUEUE_FLAG_ADD_RANDOM	10	/* Contributes to random pool */
include/linux/blkdev.h:#define blk_queue_add_random(q)	test_bit(QUEUE_FLAG_ADD_RANDOM, &(q)->queue_flags)

Since sd is the only driver that sets this flag:-

drivers/scsi/sd.c: blk_queue_flag_clear(QUEUE_FLAG_ADD_RANDOM, q);
drivers/scsi/sd.c: blk_queue_flag_set(QUEUE_FLAG_ADD_RANDOM, q);

it is unclear how it will be set for null_blk, brd. nbd, zram, and
bcache in the allocation path so we have to clear it explicitly.

Remove the call to clear QUEUE_FLAG_ADD_RANDOM. Below is testlog for :-

null_blk
brd
nbd
zram
bcache

Below is the test log.
