blk_complete_request9

End i/o on a request

Usage

void blk_complete_request(struct request * req);

Arguments

req

the request being processed

Overview

Ends all I/O on a request. It does not handle partial completions, unless the driver actually implements this in its completion callback through requeueing. The actual completion happens out-of-order, through a softirq handler. The user must have registered a completion callback through blk_queue_softirq_done.
