[PATCH] Improve requeuing behavior

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

 



Requests are unprepared and reprepared when being requeued. Avoid
that requeuing resets .jiffies_at_alloc and .retries by initializing
these two member variables from inside blk_get_request() and by
preserving both member variables when preparing a request. This patch
affects the requeuing behavior of scsi-sq and scsi-mq.
