> We are now trying to modify flashcache(https://github.com/facebook/flashcache)
> to make it request based so that
> we can let cfq io-controller control the bandwidth between different
> io cgroups.
>
> A search in the dm directory tells me that only multipath is a request
> based dm target and its functionality
> is very simple and map_rq() is used to map the request to different 
> underlying devices.
> We can't work in this way because:
>
> 1. the request which processed by map_rq() need to be issued to
>         different lower devices (disk device and cache device, in 
> flashcache), therefore the request
>         can't be totally remapped by simply changing its queue and returning 
> DM_MAPIO_REMAPPED in map_rq() like multipath_map()
> 2. to submit bios drectly in map_rq() (by return DM_MAPIO_SUBMITTED) will 
> cause BUG_ON(!irqs_disabled())
>         in dm_request_fn() because the 
> submit_bio()->generic_make_request()->blk_queue_bio() will definitly call 
> spin_unlock_irq to enable the irqs
>
> As above,the interface map_rq() provided by devcie-mapper framework
> is not enough for an autonomous target, like flashcache.
>
> We propose to add a new
> mk_rq interface so that we can make the requests
> by ourselves.
