[PATCH/RESEND] scsi.mq: Added use_cmd_list flag in scsi_host to reduce lock contention

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

 



Comment provided by Bart Van and Chris H is addressed in this patch.

Add use_cmd_list flag in scsi_host to indicate scs.mq stack
to keep track of cmd_list per sdev. 

Default behaviour is not to keep track of cmd_list per sdev, as this may introduce
lock contention. (overhead is more on multi-node NUMA.)

Patch is tested using megaraid_sas driver with "use_cmd_list" value set to 1 and 0.
Added MAINTAINER of Adaptec to verify changes.
