mainlining shenanigans
85003a446e
In 4.10 I introduced a patch that associates the ioc priority with each request in the block layer. This work was done in the single queue block layer code. This patch unifies ioc priority to request mapping across the single/multi queue block layers. I have tested this patch with the null block device driver with the following parameters. null_blk queue_mode=2 irqmode=0 use_per_node_hctx=1 nr_devices=1 I have not seen a performance regression with this patch and I would appreciate any feedback or additional testing. I have also verified that io priorities are passed to the device when using the SQ and MQ path to a SATA HDD that supports io priorities.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
