    null_blk: guarantee device restart in all irq modes · cf8ecc5a
    Arianna Avanzini 提交于
    In single-queue (block layer) mode,the function null_rq_prep_fn stops
    the device if alloc_cmd fails. Then, once stopped, the device must be
    restarted on the next command completion, so that the request(s) for
    which alloc_cmd failed can be requeued. Otherwise the device hangs.
    
    Unfortunately, device restart is currently performed only for delayed
    completions, i.e., in irqmode==2. This fact causes hangs, for the
    above reasons, with the other irqmodes in combination with single-queue
    block layer.
    
    This commits addresses this issue by making sure that, if stopped, the
    device is properly restarted for all irqmodes on completions.
