2022-07-14dm/core: Reduce the size of struct dm_io_requestBart Van Assche1-2/+2
Combine the bi_op and bi_op_flags into the bi_opf member. Use the new blk_opf_t type to improve static type checking. This patch does not change any functionality.

2016-10-28block: better op and flags encodingChristoph Hellwig1-1/+1
Now that we don't need the common flags to overflow outside the range of a 32-bit type we can encode them the same way for both the bio and request fields. This in addition allows us to place the operation first (and make some room for more ops while we're at it) and to stop having to shift around the operation values. In addition this allows passing around only one value in the block layer instead of two (and eventuall also in the file systems, but we can do that later) and thus clean up a lot of code. Last but not least this allows decreasing the size of the cmd_flags field in struct request to 32-bits. Various functions passing this value could also be updated, but I'd like to avoid the churn for now. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@fb.com>
2016-06-07dm: use bio op accessorsMike Christie1-1/+2
Separate the op from the rq_flag_bits and have dm set/get the bio using bio_set_op_attrs/bio_op. Signed-off-by: Mike Christie <mchristi@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Hannes Reinecke <hare@suse.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@fb.com>
2013-11-23block: Convert drivers to immutable biovecsKent Overstreet1-2/+2
Now that we've got a mechanism for immutable biovecs - bi_iter.bi_bvec_done - we need to convert drivers to use primitives that respect it instead of using the bvec array directly.

2011-05-29dm io: use fixed initial mempool sizeMikulas Patocka1-2/+1
Replace the arbitrary calculation of an initial io struct mempool size with a constant. The code calculated the number of reserved structures based on the request size and used a "magic" multiplication constant of 4. This patch changes it to reserve a fixed number - itself still chosen quite arbitrarily. Further testing might show if there is a better number to choose. Note that if there is no memory pressure, we can still allocate an arbitrary number of "struct io" structures. One structure is enough to process the whole request.

2010-03-06dm: eliminate some holes data structuresMike Snitzer1-2/+2
Eliminate a 4-byte hole in 'struct dm_io_memory' by moving 'offset' above the 'ptr' to which it applies (size reduced from 24 to 16 bytes). And by association, 1-4 byte hole is eliminated in 'struct dm_io_request' (size reduced from 56 to 48 bytes). Eliminate all 6 4-byte holes and 1 cache-line in 'struct dm_snapshot' (size reduced from 392 to 368 bytes).
