Series vhost: fix scsi cmd handling and cgroup support | expand

Commit Message

Mike Christie Oct. 22, 2020, 12:35 a.m. UTC
We can't control a VM's vhost scsi IO right now because the vhost worker
is added to the VM's blk cgroup, but the vhost worker thread actually
just passes the cmd to a vhost-scsi driver workqueue which ends up
submitting the cmd to the block layer.

This patch has us submit from the vhost worker thread and removes the
work queue.
