git bisect bad 30e62ce1ce96ff01d4826b0e476941169c94041d
---------------------
commit 30e62ce1ce96ff01d4826b0e476941169c94041d
Author: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@xxxxxxxxxx>
Date: Fri Dec 5 13:58:19 2008 +0100
bio: add experimental support for inlining a number of bio_vecs inside the bio
When we go and allocate a bio for IO, we actually do two allocations.
One for the bio itself, and one for the bi_io_vec that holds the
actual pages we are interested in.
This feature inlines a definable amount of io vecs inside the bio
itself, so we eliminate the bio_vec array allocation for IO's up
to a certain size. It defaults to 4 vecs, which is typically 16k
of IO.
