From 69e07c4adb8669fd77f3b59abdb436aca9f1bee9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ming Lei Date: Tue, 6 Jun 2017 23:22:07 +0800 Subject: [PATCH] blk-mq: update comments on blk_mq_quiesce_queue() Actually what we want to get from blk_mq_quiesce_queue() isn't only to wait for completion of all ongoing .queue_rq(). In the typical context of canceling requests, we need to make sure that the following is done in the dispatch path before starting to cancel requests: - failed dispatched request is finished - busy dispatched request is requeued, and the STARTED flag is cleared So update comment to keep code, doc and our expection consistent.
