From f7d7b7a7a3db6526a84ea755c1c54a051e9a52de Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jens Axboe Date: Thu, 25 Sep 2008 11:37:50 +0200 Subject: block: as/cfq ssd idle check update We really need to know about the hardware tagging support as well, since if the SSD does not do tagging then we still want to idle. Otherwise have the same dependent sync IO vs flooding async IO problem as on rotational media.
