From 47e627ce83b6df9f4bb8e4b0a4dde1c5d7a4c929 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tejun Heo Date: Sat, 29 Oct 2005 18:18:42 +0900 Subject: [PATCH] [PATCH] blk: fix merge bug in as-iosched as-iosched deals with aliased requests differently from other ioscheds. It links together aliased requests using rq->queuelist instead of spilling alises to dispatch queue like other ioscheds do. Requests linked in this way cannot be merged. Unfortunately, generic q->last_merge handling patch didn't take this into account and q->last_merge could be set to an aliased request resulting in Badness, corrupt list and eventually panic. This explicitly marks aliased requests to be unmergeable.
