[PATCH v6 02/11] block: Block Device Filtering Mechanism

From: Sergei Shtepa
Date: Fri Nov 24 2023 - 12:00:08 EST

From: Sergei Shtepa <sergei.shtepa@xxxxxxxxx>

The block device filtering mechanism is an API that allows to attach
block device filters. Block device filters allow perform additional
processing for I/O units.

The idea of handling I/O units on block devices is not new. Back in the
2.6 kernel, there was an undocumented possibility of handling I/O units
by substituting the make_request_fn() function, which belonged to the
request_queue structure. But none of the in-tree kernel modules used
this feature, and it was eliminated in the 5.10 kernel.

The block device filtering mechanism returns the ability to handle I/O
units. It is possible to safely attach filter to a block device "on the
fly" without changing the structure of block devices stack.
