[PATCH 2/2] nvme: use blk-mq polling for uring commands

Keith Busch kbusch at meta.com
Fri Mar 24 14:28:03 PDT 2023


From: Keith Busch <kbusch at kernel.org>

The first advantage is that unshared and multipath namespaces can use
the same polling callback.

The other advantage is that we don't need a bio payload in order to
poll, allowing commands like 'flush' and 'write zeroes' to be submitted
on the same high priority queue as read and write commands.

This can also allow for a future optimization for the driver since we no
longer need to create special hidden block devices to back nvme-generic
char dev's with unsupported command sets.
