I forget why you didn't do that, because for hostwide tags, request is always 1:1 for either sched tags(real io sched) or driver tags(none). Maybe you want to keep request local to hctx, but never see related performance data for supporting the point, sbitmap queue allocator has been intelligent enough to allocate tag freed from native cpu. Then you just waste lots of memory, I remember that scsi request payload is a bit big. Thanks, Ming
