From c110a4b6e603ece6134fe436e84957f7a4cd099e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: NeilBrown Date: Wed, 30 Aug 2017 08:10:18 +1000 Subject: [PATCH] dm io: remove BIOSET_NEED_RESCUER flag from bios bioset The BIOSET_NEED_RESCUER flag is only needed when a make_request_fn might do two allocations from the one bioset, and the second one could block until the first bio completes. dm_io() is called from make_request_fn() context. The closest it comes to multiple allocations is in chunk_io() in dm-snap-persistent. But there the code uses a separate thread to avoid problems. So BIOSET_NEED_RESCUER is not needed.
