[PATCH v4 12/14] nvmet: Introduce helper functions to allocate and free request SGLs

Logan Gunthorpe logang at deltatee.com
Mon Apr 23 16:30:44 PDT 2018


Add helpers to allocate and free the SGL in a struct nvmet_req:

int nvmet_req_alloc_sgl(struct nvmet_req *req, struct nvmet_sq *sq)
void nvmet_req_free_sgl(struct nvmet_req *req)

This will be expanded in a future patch to implement peer-to-peer
memory DMAs and should be common with all target drivers. The presently
unused 'sq' argument in the alloc function will be necessary to
decide whether to use peer-to-peer memory and obtain the correct
provider to allocate the memory.
