[PATCH 02/26] block: add REQ_HIPRI_ASYNC

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

 



For the upcoming async polled IO, we can't sleep allocating requests.
If we do, then we introduce a deadlock where the submitter already
has async polled IO in-flight, but can't wait for them to complete
since polled requests must be active found and reaped.
