I tried, but that does not work. The switch-case needs either a default case or a return after it. Otherwise I get a compilation warning (reached end of non-void function). > > +/* > > + * Abuse the elv.priv[0] pointer to indicate if a request has write > > + * locked its target zone.

If this code is correct, please add a > lockdep_assert_held() statement in the first function. Yes, that was a little confusing. In V6, I move the introduction of the zone_lock spinlock to when it is actually needed, that is the patch following this one. And I added more comments in both the commit message and in the code to explain why the spinlock is needed. > > +/* > > + * Test the write lock state of the target zone of a write request. > > + */ > > +static inline bool deadline_zone_is_wlocked(struct deadline_data *dd, > > + struct request *rq) > > +{ > > + unsigned int zno = blk_rq_zone_no(rq); > > + > > + return test_bit(zno, dd->zones_wlock); > > +} > > Do we really need the local variable 'zno'? No we don't. Fixed. Best regards. -- Damien Le Moal Western Digital
