[PATCH 0/2] use q->prep_rq_fn for flush requests instead of q->prepare_flush_fn()

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

 



scsi-ml builds flush requests via q->prepare_flush_fn(), however,
builds discard requests via q->prep_rq_fn.

Using two different mechnisms for the similar requests (building
commands in SCSI ULD) doesn't make sense.

Handing both via q->prep_rq_fn makes the code simpler.

We could kill q->prepare_flush_fn(). Except for ide, all the users
just mark flush requests. They can use REQ_FLUSH flag instead. Ide can
do like SCSI.
