bio size is always 4096

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

 



Hi,
   I was under the impression that when the bio comes to a block device driver its size is variable. But, after writing a block device driver i realized that such is not the case and it always is 4096.
Does this mean that by default if i don't use any merge function the bio will always have size 4096(meaning it will have only 1 page!!!!).


Regards,
Neha
