I think you can get away without a comment if blk_inc_in_flight() is right next to aio_bh_new(), but in this case there are a few lines of code in between and it becomes unclear if there is a connection. > + /* > + * vblk->bh is only set in virtio_blk_dma_restart_cb, which > + * is called only on vcpu start or stop. > + * Therefore it must be null. > + */ > + assert(vblk->bh == NULL); > /* Process queued requests before the ones in vring */ This comment makes an assumption about the order of file descriptor handlers vs BHs in the event loop. I suggest removing the comment. There is no reason for processing queued requests first anyway since virtio-blk devices can complete requests in any order.

I will simply add: /* * virtio_blk_restart_bh() code will take care of decrementing * in_flight counter. */ should make sense. > >> + /* >> + * vblk->bh is only set in virtio_blk_dma_restart_cb, which >> + * is called only on vcpu start or stop. >> + * Therefore it must be null. >> + */ >> + assert(vblk->bh == NULL); >> /* Process queued requests before the ones in vring */ > > This comment makes an assumption about the order of file descriptor > handlers vs BHs in the event loop.

No, before this patch the comment was correct. Now it's questionable because the (synchronous) call has been replaced with a BH. I think it's appropriate to drop this comment in this patch. Stefan

This function in virtio_blk_data_plane_start is directly invoked, accessing the queued requests from the main loop, while the device has already switched to the iothread context. The only place where calling virtio_blk_process_queued_requests from the main loop is allowed is when blk_set_aio_context fails, and we still need to process the requests. Since the logic of the bh is exactly the same as virtio_blk_dma_restart, so rename the function and make it public so that we can utilize it here too.
