From a63271627521b825b0dd0a564e9a9c62b4c1ca89 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Shaohua Li Date: Wed, 24 Aug 2011 16:04:32 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] block: change force plug flush call order Do blk_flush_plug_list() first and then add new request aDo blk_flush_plug_list() first and then add new request aDo blk_flush_plug_list() first and then add new request at the tail. New request can't be merged to existing requests, but later new requests might be merged with this new one. If blk_flush_plug_list() is done later, the merge doesn't happen. Believe it or not, this fixes a 10% regression running sysbench workload. Signed-off-by: Shaohua Li Signed-off-by: Shaohua Li Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe --- Reading git-format-patch failed
