From: Mike Reed Subject: qla2xxx: Conditionally disable queue_full tracking References: bnc#449386 Changing a lun's queue depth (/sys/block/sdX/device/queue_depth) isn't sticky when the device is connected via a QLogic fibre channel adapter. The QLogic qla2xxx fibre channel driver dynamically adjusts a lun's queue depth. If a user has a specific need to limit the number of commands issued to a lun (say a tape drive, or a shared raid where the total commands issued to all luns is limited at the controller level, for example) and writes a limiting value to /sys/block/sdXX/device/queue_depth, the qla2xxx driver will silently and gradually increase the queue depth back to the driver limit of ql2xmaxqdepth. While reducing this value (module parameter) or increasing the interval between ramp ups (ql2xqfullrampup) offers the potential for a work around it would be better to have the option of just disabling the dynamic adjustment of queue depth. This patch implements an "off switch" as a module parameter. Applies to 2.6.28-rc6-git1.
