[PATCH 2/2] nvme: improved uring polling

Keith Busch kbusch at meta.com
Tue May 30 10:23:43 PDT 2023


From: Keith Busch <kbusch at kernel.org>

Drivers can poll requests directly, so use that. We just need to ensure
the driver's request was allocated from a polled hctx, so a special
driver flag is added to struct io_uring_cmd.

The first advantage is unshared and multipath namespaces can use the same
polling callback, and multipath is guaranteed to get the same queue as
the command was submitted on. Previously multipath polling might check
a different path and poll the wrong info.

The other advantage is 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. And using the
request based polling skips the unnecessary bio overhead and xarray hctx
lookup when we have a request.
