Hello Ming,
What I expect is if the number of LUNs is really large that all LUNs are treated
equally. Unless someone can set up a test that demonstrates that this is still
the case for commit 97889f9ac24f (+ACI-blk-mq: remove synchronize+AF8-rcu() from
blk+AF8-mq+AF8-del+AF8-queue+AF8-tag+AF8-set()+ACI-), I will assume that that commit breaks fairness.
Bart.
