[PATCH 0/6] hisi_sas: Expose multiple hw queues for v3 hw as experimental

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

 



This series adds support to expose multiple hw queues for SCSI mid-layer
as an experimental feature.

For now it is experimental due to known CPU hotplug issue for managed
interrupts.

So now we have two module parameters to enable managed interrupts for v3
hw driver:
- auto_affine_msi_experimental:
Use managed interrupts plus and manage reply map internally. Use
request tag for IPTT (apart from reserved commands).
- expose_mq_experimental
Use managed interrupts plus and expose multipe hw queues. Manage IPTT
internally with sbitmap.

Paramater auto_affine_msi_experimental shows better performance (than
expose_mq_experimental), so we need to maintain it for now to stop
complaints about performance regression (even though enabling this
parameter is unsafe).

I want to remove these module parameters ASAP.

This series also includes a change to convert the driver to use sbitmap
where possible for managing IPTT.

This series is based on 5.4 + [0], even though being advertised for
topic-sas-5.4 dev branch. Sorry for send before that is merged, but I just
wanted to get these posted.
