Note that the total - allocated number may be twice this amount, since it applies only - to reads or writes (not the accumulated sum). - - To avoid priority inversion through request starvation, a - request queue maintains a separate request pool per each cgroup - when CONFIG_BLK_CGROUP is enabled, and this parameter applies to - each such per-block-cgroup request pool. IOW, if there are N - block cgroups, each request queue may have up to N request - pools, each independently regulated by nr_requests. + block layer. Noted this value only represents the quantity for a + single blk_mq_tags instance. The actual number for the entire + device depends on the hardware queue count, whether elevator is + enabled, and whether tags are shared. What: /sys/block//queue/nr_zones
