[PATCH V8 4/7] blk-mq: introduce .get_budget and .put_budget in blk_mq_ops

From: Ming Lei
Date: Fri Oct 13 2017 - 13:26:11 EST


For SCSI devices, there is often per-request-queue depth, which need
to be respected before queuing one request.

The current blk-mq always dequeues request first, then calls .queue_rq()
to dispatch the request to lld. One obvious issue of this way is that I/O
merge may not be good, because when the per-request-queue depth can't be
respected, .queue_rq() has to return BLK_STS_RESOURCE, then this request
has to stay in hctx->dispatch list, and never got chance to participate
into I/O merge.

This patch introduces .get_budget and .put_budget callback in blk_mq_ops,
then we can try to get reserved budget first before dequeuing request.
Once the budget for queueing I/O can't be satisfied, we don't need to
dequeue request at all, then I/O merge can get improved a lot.
