/**
|
||||
* blk_queue_max_sectors - set max sectors for a request for this queue
|
||||
* @q: the request queue for the device
|
||||
* @max_sectors: max sectors in the usual 512b unit
|
||||
* @max_hw_sectors: max hardware sectors in the usual 512b unit
|
||||
*
|
||||
* Description:
|
||||
* Enables a low level driver to set an upper limit on the size of
|
||||
* received requests.
|
||||
* Enables a low level driver to set a hard upper limit,
|
||||
* max_hw_sectors, on the size of requests. max_hw_sectors is set by
|
||||
* the device driver based upon the combined capabilities of I/O
|
||||
* controller and storage device.
|
||||
*
|
||||
* max_sectors is a soft limit imposed by the block layer for
|
||||
* filesystem type requests. This value can be overridden on a
|
||||
* per-device basis in /sys/block/<device>/queue/max_sectors_kb.
|
||||
* The soft limit can not exceed max_hw_sectors.
