[PATCH 0/5] scsi_io_completion cleanup

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

 



This patchset assumes the presence of "[PATCH v4] Make SCSI Status
CONDITION MET equivalent to GOOD". While working on that patch the
author had trouble following the logic in the scsi_io_completion()
function found in scsi_lib.c . That led to a rework of the
scsi_io_completion() which is now much shorter with the bulk of its
code, error processing, moved into 2 helper functions. The fastpath
(i.e. the path the the vast majority of SCSI commands will take)
remains in the shorter scsi_io_completion() and should be easier to
follow with the added conditional hints.

Finally after warnings from checkpatch.pl and the encouragement of
a reviewer, three BUG calls are converted to WARN calls.
Suggestions for alternative recoveries are welcome.

Douglas Gilbert (5):
  scsi_io_completion: rename variables and comments
  scsi_io_completion: add _nz_result helper
  scsi_io_completion: add _action helper function
  scsi_io_completion: conditional hints on fastpath
  scsi_io_completion: convert BUGs to WARNs
