From d5b4a21b3dc116b477c1b1b493233a73aacbb440 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Christoph Hellwig Date: Wed, 21 Dec 2011 14:20:31 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] target: increase iblock task sizes There is no real limit for task sizes in the iblock driver given that we can chain bios. Increase the maximum size to UINT_MAX, and change the code to submit bios in a smaller batch size to avoid deadlocks when having more bios in flight than the pool supports. Also increase the pool size to always allow multiple tasks to be in flight. I also had to change the task refcounting to include one reference for the submission task, which is a standard practice in this kind of code in Linux (e.g. XFS I/O submission). This was wrong before, but couldn't be hit easily. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig Signed-off-by: Nicholas Bellinger --- Reading git-format-patch failed
