Hi,
Add per-task io poll context for holding HIPRI blk-mq/underlying bios
queued from bio based driver's io submission context, and reuse one bio
padding field for storing 'cookie' returned from submit_bio() for these
bios. Also explicitly end these bios in poll context by adding two
new bio flags.
In this way, we needn't to poll all underlying hw queues any more,
which is implemented in Jeffle's patches. And we can just poll hw queues
in which there is HIPRI IO queued.
Usually io submission and io poll share same context, so the added io
poll context data is just like one stack variable, and the cost for
saving bios is cheap.
Any comments are welcome.
Jeffle Xu (4):
block/mq: extract one helper function polling hw queue
block: add queue_to_disk() to get gendisk from request_queue
block: add poll_capable method to support bio-based IO polling
dm: support IO polling for bio-based dm device
Ming Lei (7):
block: add helper of blk_queue_poll
block: add one helper to free io_context
block: add helper of blk_create_io_context
block: create io poll context for submission and poll task
block: add req flag of REQ_TAG
block: add new field into 'struct bvec_iter'
block: use per-task poll context to implement bio based io poll
