Subject: [PATCH v3 3/7] blk-mq: add a new queue sysfs attribute async_depth
Date: Fri, 10 Oct 2025 10:28:05 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251010022812.2985286-4-yukuai@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251010022812.2985286-1-yukuai@kernel.org>
From: Yu Kuai <yukuai3@huawei.com>
Add a new field async_depth to request_queue and related APIs, this is
currently not used, following patches will convert elevators to use
this instead of internal async_depth.
Also factor out a helper blk_mq_limit_depth() to make code cleaner.
