From fd571df0ac5b289af8c659891f9b72f4c0cfdbd2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Paolo Valente Date: Tue, 3 Jan 2023 15:54:59 +0100 Subject: block, bfq: turn bfqq_data into an array in bfq_io_cq When a bfq_queue Q is merged with another queue, several pieces of information are saved about Q. These pieces are stored in the bfqq_data field in the bfq_io_cq data structure of the process associated with Q. Yet, with a multi-actuator drive, a process may get associated with multiple bfq_queues: one queue for each of the N actuators. Each of these queues may undergo a merge. So, the bfq_io_cq data structure must be able to accommodate the above information for N queues. This commit solves this problem by turning the bfqq_data scalar field into an array of N elements (and by changing code so as to handle this array). This solution is written under the assumption that bfq_queues associated with different actuators cannot be cross-merged. This assumption holds naturally with basic queue merging: the latter is triggered by spatial locality, and sectors for different actuators are not close to each other (apart from the corner case of the last sectors served by a given actuator and the first sectors served by the next actuator). As for stable cross-merging, the assumption here is that it is disabled.
