Description:
[RW] This controls how many requests may be allocated in the
- block layer for read or write requests. Note that the total
- allocated number may be twice this amount, since it applies only
- to reads or writes (not the accumulated sum).
-
- To avoid priority inversion through request starvation, a
- request queue maintains a separate request pool per each cgroup
- when CONFIG_BLK_CGROUP is enabled, and this parameter applies to
- each such per-block-cgroup request pool. IOW, if there are N
- block cgroups, each request queue may have up to N request
- pools, each independently regulated by nr_requests.
+ block layer. Noted this value only represents the quantity for a
+ single blk_mq_tags instance. The actual number for the entire
+ device depends on the hardware queue count, whether elevator is
+ enabled, and whether tags are shared.
