From 6a525600ffeb9e0d6cbbebda49eb89d6d3408c2b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tejun Heo Date: Tue, 14 May 2013 13:52:32 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] blk-throttle: remove pointless throtl_nr_queued() optimizations throtl_nr_queued() is used in several places to avoid performing certain operations when the throtl_data is empty. This usually is useless as those paths usually aren't traveled if there's no bio queued. * throtl_schedule_delayed_work() skips scheduling dispatch work item if @td doesn't have any bios queued; however, the only case it can be called when @td is empty is from tg_set_conf() which isn't something we should be optimizing for. * throtl_schedule_next_dispatch() takes a quick exit if @td is empty; however, right after that it triggers BUG if the service tree is empty. The two conditions are equivalent and it can just test @st->count for the quick exit. * blk_throtl_dispatch_work_fn() skips dispatch if @td is empty. This work function isn't usually invoked when @td is empty. The only possibility is from tg_set_conf() and when it happens the normal dispatching path can handle empty @td fine. No need to add special skip path. This patch removes the above three unnecessary optimizations, which leave throtl_log() call in blk_throtl_dispatch_work_fn() the only user of throtl_nr_queued(). Remove throtl_nr_queued() and open code it in throtl_log(). I don't think we need td->nr_queued[] at all. Maybe we can remove it later.
