I use blk_rq_deadline because __blk_add_timer uses it.
-
/*

*/
expiry = blk_rq_timeout(round_jiffies_up(blk_rq_deadline(req)));
-
if (!timer_pending(&q->timeout) ||
time_before(expiry, q->timeout.expires)) {
unsigned long diff = q->timeout.expires - expiry;
This is also the reason why there is no issue about timeout when test.
blk_rq_timeout will return reasonable value.
In addition, on a 64bit system, how do you set up the timer with a 32bit
deadline ?
Thanks
