[PATCH 00/15] A different approach for using blk-mq in the SCSI layer

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

 



As explained in my earlier proposal I think we need to move to blk-mq
for the SCSI midlayer quickly, and in a way that keeps all the existing
queueing mechanisms working.  This series shows my current progress towards
this goal.  It works under medium loads for iSCSI and virtio_scsi and I'm
fairly happy with the code structure.  As seen I've tried to push as much
work into the blk-mq core, and refactor the SCSI code so that it can be
used for the old request based path and blk-mq as much as possible.

There are still lots of limits mostly due to the lack of functionality in
blk-mq, and I will try to address these in the blk-mq core mostly.
