Subject: [PATCH v4] scsi: storvsc: Parameterize number hardware queues
Date: Wed, 24 Feb 2021 23:29:48 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210224232948.4651-1-melanieplageman@gmail.com> (raw)

Add ability to set the number of hardware queues with new module parameter,
storvsc_max_hw_queues. The default value remains the number of CPUs.  This
functionality is useful in some environments (e.g. Microsoft Azure) where
decreasing the number of hardware queues has been shown to improve
performance.

Updated since v3:
- permissions in octal
- param type changed to unsigned int
- removed value checking from module init function
- simplified value checking logic in probe function
