Simply nobody finished it up yet. Le jeu. 27 déc. 2018 à 22:07, Christos Zoulas <chris...@zoulas.com> a écrit : > mostly done... I did the last tls-maxphys sync. It will need at least one resync, since more stuff moved around (i.e. wd(4) was converted to dksubr since then). I want to eliminate some duplicated code in PCI-IDE drivers before the merge. Other than that, I don't see any other blockers for the merge. Of course, it requires proper round of testing before it could be really considered merge-worthy. As others noted, the performance benefit of tls-maxphys is likely to be small. It however removes artificial limits in the stack, unlocking new opportunities for further development, so it's both necessary and good to do nevertheless. Jaromir
