Hi Greg,
Please consider this patchset, which include block/scsi multiqueue performance enhancement and bugfix.
What exactly is the performance enhancement? How can you measure it? How did you measure it?
I'm testing on SRP/IBNBD using fio, I've seen +10% with mix IO load, and 50% improvement on small IO (bs=512.) with the patchset.
Big nak on backporting this huge series, it's a lot of core changes. It's way beyond the scope of a stable fix backport.

OK, could you shed light on how could we fix the queue stall problem on 4.14? My colleague Roman reported to upstream: https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/10/18/263
It's still there on latest 4.14.
The proposed patch is a helluva lot simpler than doing a 23 patch selective backport.

Do you think it make sense to port Roman's patch to upstream 4.14?
So others would also be benifitial? On the other side, stable tree only takes patches accepted into Linus tree.
Thanks, Jack
