This is because the first CPU in the group mask ends up being completely overloaded with work, while the others (including the original submitter) has power left to spare. Allow the strict mode to be set by writing '2' to the sysfs control file. This is identical to the scheme used for the nomerges file, where '2' is a more aggressive setting than just being turned on. echo 2 > /sys/block//queue/rq_affinity Cc: Christoph Hellwig Cc: Roland Dreier Tested-by: Dave Jiang Signed-off-by: Dan Williams Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe --- Documentation/block/queue-sysfs.txt | 10 +++++++--- block/blk-core.c | 6 ++---- block/blk-softirq.c | 11 +++++++---- block/blk-sysfs.c | 13 +++++++++---- include/linux/blkdev.h | 3 ++- 5 files changed, 27 insertions(+), 16 deletions(-) diff --git a/Documentation/block/queue-sysfs.txt b/Documentation/block/queue-sysfs.txt index f65274081c8d..d8147b336c35 100644 --- a/Documentation/block/queue-sysfs.txt +++ b/Documentation/block/queue-sysfs.txt @@ -45,9 +45,13 @@ device. rq_affinity (RW) ---------------- -If this option is enabled, the block layer will migrate request completions -to the CPU that originally submitted the request.
