[PATCH 5/5] block: add large command support

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

 



From: FUJITA Tomonori <fujita.tomonori@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

This patch changes rq->cmd from the static array to a pointer to
support large commands.

We rarely handle large commands. So for optimization, a struct request
still has a static array for a command. blk_init_rq sets rq->cmd pointer
to the static array.
