The following appears in blk_sq_make_request:
/*
* If we have multiple hardware queues, just go directly to
* one of those for sync IO.
*/
We clearly don't have multiple hardware queues, here! This comment was
introduced with this commit 07068d5b8e (blk-mq: split make request
handler for multi and single queue):
We want slightly different behavior from them:
- On single queue devices, we currently use the per-process plug
for deferred IO and for merging.
- On multi queue devices, we don't use the per-process plug, but
we want to go straight to hardware for SYNC IO.
The old code had this:
use_plug = !is_flush_fua && ((q->nr_hw_queues == 1) || !is_sync);
and that was converted to:
use_plug = !is_flush_fua && !is_sync;
which is not equivalent. For the single queue case, that second half of
the && expression is always true. So, what I think was actually inteded
follows (and this more closely matches what is done in blk_queue_bio).
