+AD4 +AD4 I think it's unfortunate that the blk-mq core uses the .queue+AF8-offset member but
+AD4 +AD4 that mapping functions in block drivers are responsible for setting that member.
+AD4 +AD4 Since the block driver mapping functions have to set blk+AF8-mq+AF8-queue+AF8-map.nr+AF8-queues,
+AD4 +AD4 how about adding a loop in blk+AF8-mq+AF8-update+AF8-queue+AF8-map() that derives .queue+AF8-offset
+AD4 +AD4 from .nr+AF8-queues from previous array entries?
+AD4 
+AD4 It's not a simple increment, so the driver has to be the one setting it. If
+AD4 we end up sharing queues, for instance, then the driver will need to set
+AD4 it to the start offset of that set. If you go two patches forward you
+AD4 can see that exact construct.
+AD4 
+AD4 IOW, it's the driver that controls the offset, not the core.

If sharing of hardware queues between hardware queue types is supported,
what should hctx-+AD4-type be set to? Additionally, patch 5 adds code that uses
hctx-+AD4-type as an array index. How can that code work if a single hardware
queue can be shared by multiple hardware queue types?

Thanks,

Bart.
