Subject: [PATCH v7 20/27] scsi-multipath: add scsi_mpath_{start,end}_request()
Date: Tue, 1 Sep 2026 10:45:19 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260901104526.3850621-21-john.g.garry@oracle.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260901104526.3850621-1-john.g.garry@oracle.com>
From: John Garry <john.garry@linux.dev>
Add scsi_mpath_{start,end}_request() to handle updating private multipath
request data, like nvme_mpath_{start,end}_request().
New member Scsi_Host.mpath_nr_active is added. This is required for queue
depth multipath iopolicy.
For NVMe, this count is per controller. The reason is that many NSes may
be connected to a controller, so congestion should be judged at
controller level.
SCSI has no definition of a controller, but SCSI host is a comparable
concept.
Indeed, many SCSI disks may be connected to the same SCSI host, so it
makes sense to count number of active requests at this point. However,
for a transport like iSCSI Initiator over TCP/IP, we have a separate SCSI
host per SCSI device (so there the count would be same at SCSI device
level).
