NAME

blk_queue_ordered - does this queue support ordered writes  

SYNOPSIS

"SYNOPSIS"

void blk_queue_ordered (request_queue_t * q, int flag);  

ARGUMENTS

q
the request queue
flag

DESCRIPTION

For journalled file systems, doing ordered writes on a commit block instead of explicitly doing wait_on_buffer (which is bad for performance) can be a big win. Block drivers supporting this feature should call this function and indicate so.
