I can see that if is common that one read request is pushed to the mmc blockdev queue after the previous request has already finished. For this scenario there will no improvement. If running IOzone with large record sizes multiple requests are queued up in the mmc blockdev queue and this results in increase of bandwidth. The mmc_test are intended to help verifying if the pre_req and post_req are implemented correctly and give a number of the maximum gain in performance. > -- > Regards, > Shawn Regards, Per -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-mmc" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
