Unless I've misunderstood as > usual... If that happens, it is probably a spurious IRQ since it's already scheduled to run (and hasn't yet). So it should be fine, in reality it should not happen since the IRQ should have been acked and the iopoll handler scheduled. > Documenting the "zero means failure" nature of blk_iopoll_sched_prep() > might also be a good idea; I predict confusion otherwise. There's no real failure case, it zero just means "already scheduled". But we do usually use 0 as the "normal" case, so good point anyway. I'll change it. -- Jens Axboe -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-scsi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
