Hi Kyungmin, So once we have context information, we want to process all the requests from the same context together? IOW, we expect that driver will have multiple requests in flight from various context and it will batch the requests from same context together? How does that help? Is it something related to seeking? If yes, then just setting the rotational=1 should help as CFQ will sequence all the sequential IO where it can. For random IO, anyway optimization will not help. May be it is about something else which I am completely missing. Some details here will help.
