Richard W.M. Jones 582b0ab200 scsi: virtio: virtio_scsi: Set can_queue to the length of the virtqueue.
Since switching to blk-mq as the default in commit 5c279bd9e4
("scsi: default to scsi-mq"), virtio-scsi LUNs consume about 10x as
much kernel memory.

qemu currently allocates a fixed 128 entry virtqueue.  can_queue
currently is set to 1024.  But with indirect descriptors, each command
in the queue takes 1 virtqueue entry, so the number of commands which
can be queued is equal to the length of the virtqueue.

Note I intend to send a patch to qemu to allow the virtqueue size to be
configured from the qemu command line.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
