Yes:
if (trace_block_rq_insert_enabled()) {
list_for_each_entry(rq, list, queuelist) {
BUG_ON(rq->mq_ctx != ctx);
list_del_init(&rq->queuelist);
__blk_mq_insert_req_list(hctx, rq, false);
trace_block_rq_insert(hctx->queue, rq);
}
}
This will only call the loop if the trace event "block_rq_insert" has
been activated. It also uses the jump label infrastructure, so that if
statement is a non-conditional branch (static_key_false()).
