[PATCH 0/2] block/SCSI MQ: two RESTART related patches
From: Ming Lei
Date: Tue Oct 17 2017 - 01:04:47 EST
Hi Jens,
The 1st patch runs idle hctx after dealy in scsi_mq_get_budget(),
so that we can keep same behaviour with before, and it can be
thought as a fix.
The 2nd patch cleans up RESTART, and removes handling for TAG_SHARED
from current blk-mq's RESTART mechanism because SCSI_MQ can covers its
restart by itself, so that no need to handle TAG_SHARED in blk-mq
RESTART. And >20% IOPS boost is observed in my rand read test over
scsi_debug.
John, please test this two patches and see if it may improve your SAS
IO performance, and you can find the two patches in the following branch:

Ming Lei (2):
SCSI: run idle hctx after delay in scsi_mq_get_budget()
blk-mq: don't handle TAG_SHARED in restart
