Looks it might be simpler to implement the approach by using percpu bio_list. > + > +static struct bio *unwind_bio_endio(struct bio *bio) > +{ > + struct bio ***bio_end_queue_ptr; > + struct bio *bio_queue; > + struct bio *chain_bio = NULL; > + int error = bio->bi_error; > + unsigned long flags; > + > + local_irq_save(flags); If we may resue current->bio_list for this purpose, disabling irq should have been avoided, but looks it is difficult to do in that way, maybe impossible.
