dm device set QUEUE_FLAG_NONROT in resume, which is after register
queue. That is to mean, the previous initialization in
blk_throtl_register_queue is wrong in this case.
Fix it by checking and then updating the info during root tg
initialization as we don't have a better choice.

if CONFIG_BLK_DEV_THROTTLING_LOW isn't not set, we use old slice, can you do
the same thing here? Otherwise,

Given DM motivated this change, curious why you didn't send this to dm-devel?

In any case, not sure why you need to reference "resume".  Very few
people will appreciate that detail.

Better to just say: DM device sets QUEUE_FLAG_NONROT after the queue
is registered.

typo: s/resister/register/
But again, best to say:
DM device sets QUEUE_FLAG_NONROT after the queue is registered, ...

Also, an alternative to your patch would be to have DM's
dm_table_set_restrictions() call a blk-throttle function to setup
blk-throttle after it is done setting queue flags?
Saves all other drivers from having to run this 2 stage initialization
code.. just a thought.

Though the patch is a workaround, I'd prefer limiting the code into
blk-throttle itself. Populating it to drivers is a layer violation to me. The
initialization only runs once, so I think it's ok.

Thanks,

Since this is io.low specifically, I don't want the change in device
mapper layer. But I do agree with you that I have to cc dm-devel as
well. Sorry for missing that.

Thanks for your advice. I will update and resend it.

I fail to see how this is a "workaround".  Whatever you call it, the
blk-throttle code needs to cope with the fact that DM's request_queue
setup is different than other block devices.

If having DM call a function that blk-throttle provides (code that is in
block/blk-throttle.c) I fail to see the layer violation.  No more a
layer violation than any of the other block core code that block drivers
call to setup the request_queue's capabilities.

But I'm not well-versed on blk-throttle code (hence DM coming up lacking
relative to it).  SO I'll defer to you guys to sort it out how you think
best.

Thanks,
Mike
