| |
blk_init_rl() allocates a mempool using mempool_create_node() with node local memory. This only allocates the mempool and element list locally to the requeue queue node.
What we really want to do is allocate the request itself local to the queue. To do this, we need our own alloc and free functions that will allocate from request_cachep and pass the request queue node in to prefer node local memory.
