threeeye bc1d038eac REVVL 6 Pro kernel bring-up: full working tree snapshot (2026-09-12)
Squashed backup commit (no shallow-clone history issues) of
xiaomi-mt6833-dev/kernel_xiaomi_mt6833 (lineage-23.2 branch, upstream
commit 9eece662e) plus all fixes applied to get everpal_defconfig building
clean against a modern (GCC 15.2.0) toolchain -- see the previous commit
message on the lineage-23.2 branch (also in this repo history is not
available here since this is a squashed snapshot; full incremental history
lives in the local DL380 checkout and the upstream GitHub remote).

dm-queue-length
===============
dm-queue-length is a path selector module for device-mapper targets,
which selects a path with the least number of in-flight I/Os.
The path selector name is 'queue-length'.
Table parameters for each path: [<repeat_count>]
<repeat_count>: The number of I/Os to dispatch using the selected
path before switching to the next path.
If not given, internal default is used. To check
the default value, see the activated table.
Status for each path: <status> <fail-count> <in-flight>
<status>: 'A' if the path is active, 'F' if the path is failed.
<fail-count>: The number of path failures.
<in-flight>: The number of in-flight I/Os on the path.
Algorithm
=========
dm-queue-length increments/decrements 'in-flight' when an I/O is
dispatched/completed respectively.
dm-queue-length selects a path with the minimum 'in-flight'.
Examples
========
In case that 2 paths (sda and sdb) are used with repeat_count == 128.
# echo "0 10 multipath 0 0 1 1 queue-length 0 2 1 8:0 128 8:16 128" \
dmsetup create test
#
# dmsetup table
